hi all,  
So, my situation. I have a beamer without remote, but was successful by randomly selecting a project from my broadlink app to make it “smart” via Broadlink.  
I use IFTTT to control that device from Homey, via IFTTT to BL.

But…now it is stopping… damn. Any tips on how I can get it back to work? How can I solve this conundrum?

Cheers  
Vic

Thanks for the reply!  
Problem is… I have no remote… So I can’t teach it anything. Why is there no way to read the current installed devices on broadlink?

See my post:

> [@\[HOWTO\] Use IFTTT with Homey when the official support has ended](https://community.homey.app/t/howto-use-ifttt-with-homey-when-the-official-support-has-ended/54535):
>
> We all heard the official Homey support for IFTTT will end, and those still using it are probably looking for alternatives. Look no further - you can keep using IFTTT together with Homey (in a slightly different way) using webrequests. Both directions are covered, also see the second post in this thread. Don’t be intimidated by the length of this post, once you get it it is not that hard. Start an IFTTT applet from Homey To start an IFTTT action from Homey, you need to create a webrequest trig…

In the end I bought a cheap IR copy remote, copied the broadlink signal and retaught the same signal via the homey command to the broadlink app…and voila ^^
