Since yesterday I have purchased my first devices following Untertaker’s recommendation.
Unfortunately, neither Switchbot Support nor I have managed to integrate these into Homey.
I have all devices clean in the IOS APP, when I try to connect I only get the wrong user name, even though everything is written correctly.
The Homey APP still asks for the username, which I interpret as my nickname in the app?
Unfortunately, the options for registering via Google, Apple, etc. are not available in the Switchbot app.
The only authorisation method available via the API is the username and password, the others are not supported.
The actual login process is handled by Switchbot, so the page you see asking for credentials is served by Switchbot. The details you enter are then passed into Switchbot for validation and if it accepts them it posts a token pair back to the Homey app. So I have no control over the login process.
Thank you for the quick answer Andrian, then on the interface the term User will be the API key input mask?
Unfortunately, the API key for input doesn’t work with my data either.
Ok, thanks in your direction, I’ll stay tuned to Switchbot
If it is supported by the SwitchBot hub, then I can probably do something.
If it is, can you send me the Detected Log from the app settings page. Click on Get HUB Devices, when the list is populated, click on Send Log.
After I integrated my first automation with Homey into Siri, I had the following problem:
In the flow, the If statement is the lock closed or open
Then open or close the lock.
When I start this, the lock loses its calibration and keeps moving back and forth but doesn’t lock or unlock. This is reproducible. I made a video of it.
Then the only solution is to remove the batteries and then recalibrate the lock.
Using the Switchbot app I can turn the function on/off as often as I want and it works.
My German is not good, but it looks like you have the When locked card as the trigger, so its When locked Then unlock. If you have another Flow that does the opposite they will ping-pong between them.
Could you change the When cards to The Flow starts and add a Condition card for The lock is unlocked, etc.
Unfortunately the keypads don’t report anything. I have requested that it provides information such as a code was entered (without revealing the code so no security issues), etc.
