Hi!
Enyone who knows how to connect Shelly Button 1 to Homey?
I have find my device in Homey but I dont know how to send the buttomtriggings to Homey.
I can not even see the status of the battery. What I can understand there are no interaktions between the button 1 and the Homey.
Maybe I must fill in a syntax like http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/relay/0?turn=on under forexample
BUTTON LONG PRESSED URL.
I have Homeys latest version 5.0.0 and Shelly app version3.0.26
Some one who please can help me??
Thanks in advance

Hello there
I have a quick question, I tried the Homey App āPower by the Hourā and I was informed by the developer that all devices that report the following āmeter_power capabilityā should appear for selection. Do you know if your App does report that āflagā
Thank you and best regards

Have you read the intructions and troubleshooting from the first post?
Yes
Thank you very much for the fast reply.
This is great news and I am looking forward to using your app.
Best regards

Hi again,
I have now tried to find instructions (I found 18 notes regarding this).
What I can understund the instructions is for earlier versions off Shelley app.
There are lots of notes so maybe I have missed the one that could guide me.
I would be happy if you please can guide me to the rigt instruction if I have missed it.
Thanks in advance.

I have no clue which 18 you are referring to. The instructions are in the first post of this topic.
I am sorry if I am annoying :-). I have followed that instructions and I have found the divice in the Shelly app in Homy. The problem is that it seems that the device not communicat with the Shelly app in the Homey. It does not matter if I push the button short, long, two or three times, there are no reactions at all. I dont even find any kind triggers of to use for create a flow. It does not matter if I use Input 1 turned on or Input 1 turned off as āwhenā in the flow, it does not trigg. What I need to know is, how to create a working flow there I use my Shelly button 1 as a trigger (starter of the flow).
Once again I am sorry if I am annoying.

Iām here to help but it seems you are not doing anything with the advice Iām giving you. You say you followed the instructions but in the instructions of the first post there is also information on how to setup a flow which reacts on action events like shortpushes. Hint: itās a generic triggercard under the app but Iām not going to repeat all instructions info here, you just need to read it there. If you have created a flow with the correct triggercard but itās not responding you will need to follow the CoAP troubleshooting guide which is also described there.
Hi!
I nearly start to feel stupid. I can not get it to work. Where do I go wrong,
My setup in the flow is this.
ja mean YesWhen I found the Shelly in the Logic the status is No
And I have disabled CoAP.
I can even see the status of the batteri, which I can not see if CoAP is enabled.

The trigger card you are using is not from my app. I have no idea what it does and canāt guarantee it works. Use the action events trigger card from my app as described in the instructions or the input state has changed device trigger card from the Shelly 1 button.
But if the battery state of the device is not updated even though it has changed in the official Shelly app it means your network is not configured correctly for the use of CoAP, see the CoAP troubleshooting guide. Action events like shortpush donāt work when CoAP is not working or has been disabled. These battery operated device donāt work well with http polling either as they are asleep most of the time.
If you canāt get CoAP to work in your network, you will have to wait a week or two until there is a new firmware for the Shelly which brings unicast support. This avoids network issues.
Hi,
I really have to apologize. I completely missed your special app (see attached) for managing the flow. You must be wondering if I really knew what I was doing. Have not seen this solution before so that is the explanation. As you say, I need to wait for the next firmware for my Button 1 because I do not get SoAP to work in my network. Again I apologize.
Have a good weekend.
Regards
Anders

hi! clearly my network dont support CoAP, values like temperature comes in correctly if i disable CoAP in the app. will where be unicast support for triggers like long and shortpress in the future? 
i use those triggers for many things and it all stopped working now even if i use the new triggercard witch btw seams to be awesome
Allterco Robotics is working on a new firmware for Shelly devices which will support unicast (v1.10.0). Plan is to release this firmware in the upcoming week (and today as public beta but Iām not sure if they will make that deadline as there are still some issues). All integration developers are currently helping out testing this new firmware. I have already updated my app to support unicast which I will release once the firmware becomes available. That should solve your problems and brings back the action events.

Did I understand correctly that the firmware update will restore the original functionality? Everything works with the original Shelly app - is that correct so that it is irrelevant to my problem in the Homey app? In your opinion, should I wait for the firmware update or ask our network administrator to ensure that Coap is working correctly?
Thank you and best regards

Iām not sure what you mean with that. Iām not going back to HTTP polling from the 1.x version of the app if that is what you are suggesting. With HTTP polling Homey needs to ask every device for itās status which generates a lot of traffic and always lags behind. With CoAP the devices can push their status to Homey when there is an update which is much more responsive and only generates network traffic on events. The current implementation of CoAP uses multicast though which does not work well on some network configurations. The change that Allterco Robotics is implementing and which Iām adopting in my app is CoAP over unicast. This should work a lot better on most if not all network configurations.
Sorry, Iām not as very deep into the matter as you are. Those were more questions of understanding. Ok, so CoAP is the right thing and you do improve that with unicast. In this case I have to check why our network doesnāt support CoAP or would you advise that I wait for the update first, as unicast may solve my problems?
If you can wait up to a week Iād say wait for it.
