Trying to “control” another device by executing an http request to the device, it works if I in a browser put in the following line (obviously with other correct username & password):

[http://username:password@192.168.1.1/api/plugins/callUIEvent?deviceID=1628&elementName=lbl\_ChargerOn&eventType=onReleased](http://username:password@192.168.1.1/api/plugins/callUIEvent?deviceID=1628&elementName=lbl_ChargerOn&eventType=onReleased)

But how do I create a script in Homey Script that then can be called in a Flow?

Why not use a Logic card, if you just have to make an HTTP request you don’t need HomeyScript.

@robertklep Hmmm so you mean use the Logic card:  
**Do a HTTP ‘method’ request to ‘url’ with subject ‘subject’ and context ‘context’**

But what Method should be used and how do I divide the line into Url, subject and context?

I hope that “Subject” and “Context” are translations for “Body” and “Headers”.

The method to use is `GET`, body and headers can be left empty, the URL is the URL that you posted.
