[APP][Pro] PostNL for Homey

PostNL for Homey

View expected mail items and PostNL parcels directly in Homey. The app uses PostNL’s personal, non-public interface and may therefore require changes if PostNL updates its mobile app or sign-in procedure. With two convenient widgets, you can see at a glance what mail and parcels are on their way.

Linking your PostNL account

  1. Download the PostNL Homey Login Helper here, then extract the ZIP file. The helper is a Google Chrome extension.

  2. Open chrome://extensions, enable Developer mode, and select Load unpacked.

  3. In Homey, go to More → Apps → PostNL → Settings.

  4. Copy the URL shown below the Open PostNL button, paste it into a new browser window, and sign in to your PostNL account.

  5. The helper automatically captures the callback. Return to the PostNL App Settings, click Open PostNL, paste the callback into the input field that appears, and complete the sign-in process.

  6. You can then add the My PostNL device.

The Homey app and browser helper do not store your PostNL password. Never share callbacks or tokens with anyone.

The app automatically checks the current PostNL iOS app version every day, retrieves new data every five minutes, and performs additional checks around midnight for new My Post items. Mail item information and images are stored locally in Homey for a maximum of 21 days.

PostNL does not provide a public consumer API. If a non-public My Post endpoint changes, the My PostNL device will remain available and parcel tracking will continue to work. The device status and widget will then indicate that My Post is temporarily unavailable, instead of making the entire device unavailable.

Important: Use the same email address of your account are registered at PostNL app or website.

Download in the Homey App Store!

Great that we now have an app for PostNL! :clap: I’ve got it running on my Homey and added two widgets to my dashboard. The only thing I’ve noticed so far is that something’s off with the driver icon.

Edit: The issue only occurs in the iOS app (PNG), in the web browser (SVG) it looks fine.

Goodevening, I installed the extention, followed the instructions, though after login onto the PostNL website I don’t get to see the copy callback option, as no login was registered. What am I doing wrong?

I would assume that clicking on "Open PostNL’ It should jump to the PostNL website, but instead it goes to the next screen:

Manually loading the PostNL login screen doesn’t let me capture the login callback…

@Graaf How did you manage to succesfully login?

Will fix the icon soon.

Right click the button open postNL and open it in a separate tab. That worked for me

Great @Stef_Jacops That did it for me! Thank you for your help :blush:

I will fix the button that it will open directly the url under it.
