Hi,

I’d like to control my Somfy Protect (formally known as MyFox) alarm system directly from Homey. Unfortunately, there is currently no app available. However, I have found a few developments that seem to work on other systems:

> **[GitHub - alxscms/homebridge-somfy-protect](https://github.com/alxscms/homebridge-somfy-protect)**
>
> Contribute to alxscms/homebridge-somfy-protect development by creating an account on GitHub.

> **[GitHub - Minims/SomfyProtect2MQTT: Somfy Protect to MQTT](https://github.com/Minims/SomfyProtect2MQTT)**
>

I’m trying to implement the same commands in HomeyScript using the fetch function, but I’m already stuck on the request to obtain a token.

```auto
const CLIENT_ID = "84eddf48-2b8e-11e5-b2a5-124cfab25595_475buqrf8v8kgwoo4gow08gkkc0ck80488wo44s8o48sg84k40";
const CLIENT_SECRET = "4dsqfntieu0wckwwo40kw848gw4o0c8k4owc80k4go0cs0k844";
const CLIENT_USERNAME = "***";
const CLIENT_PASSWORD = "***";

async function getNewToken(){
  const token = await fetch('https://sso.myfox.io/oauth/oauth/v2/token', {
    method: "POST",
    client_id: CLIENT_ID,
    client_secret: CLIENT_SECRET,
    username: CLIENT_USERNAME,
    password: CLIENT_PASSWORD,
    grant_type: 'password'
  });
  const data = await token.json();
  return data;
};

log(await getNewToken());

```

I got the following answer, which is exactly the same as if I put the URL in my browser’s address bar :

```auto
{
  message: 'error.invalid.token',
  data: [],
  uid: '655a49a09b474',
  error: 'invalid_client'
}

```

Could someone help me or explain how to do this, if possible? I’m new to this type of request.

Thx

Most of the data should be passed as a (probably JSON?) string:

```auto
const token = await fetch('https://sso.myfox.io/oauth/oauth/v2/token', {
    method: "POST",
    headers: { 'content-type' : 'application/json' },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      client_id: CLIENT_ID,
      client_secret: CLIENT_SECRET,
      username: CLIENT_USERNAME,
      password: CLIENT_PASSWORD,
      grant_type: 'password'
    })
  });

```

Hi! Can you help me which steps I need to take to have Somfy Protect in Homey? I’m not technical but would love to send a command to Somfy Protect from my Homey.
