Finally got this to work with HTTP, not MQTT. So with this post I will show my settings to help others (and I have documentation 😃 )

1. Get HomeyID from settings in Homey
2. Setup user in Location & Presence app in Homey and get user token
3. Setup Owntracks. Fields that I use, see image: Tracker, DeviceID, UserID, URL
4. Make sure the map in Owntracks is in setting SIGNIFICANT to have automatic updates.

The URL is created as follows:

https://{HomeyID}.connect.athom.com/api/app/nl.scanno.owntracks/events/{User-token}

My URL is as below (see values from images, just stripped a litlle):

I hope this helps others.
