Hi

I was hoping somebody could push me in the right direction. I want an Arduino Giga to be the master brains of my home automation. I am fluent in C++ and find the scripting language in Homey to limited. But I do like the way Homey can control all different protocols and little automation machines.

What would be the best way to start Flows on the Homey by the Arduino Giga. I already am familiar with MQTT but I would like to more easily/directly trigger Flows or even individual connected machines of the Homey.

Homeyduino seems to not work with the Arduino Giga.

Anyone good suggestions?

There’s probably no other way than using some sort of intermediary protocol, like MQTT, or by implementing a Homey Web API implementation in C++.

Maybe Webhooks are possible for you,  
directly via: `GET https://webhook.homey.app/<homey-id>/<event>?tag= <tag>`

or via: [Micro Web Server | Homey](https://homey.app/nl-nl/app/com.sdn.webserver/Micro-Web-Server/)
