Hi, Just bought a Homey Pro. So, I am new to this. Thx for any help. I have several HTTP requests setup in iOS Shortcuts to turn on/off lights. I am now trying to setup them up in Homey but can get it to work. **In iOS the setup is as following:** URL: [http://zapp-16200XXX.local/zrap/chscan/ch1](http://zapp-16200XXX.local/zrap/chscan/ch1) Method: Post Headers: Request Body: Form Request Body Cmd on **In Homey I tried the following flow:** HTTP request flow cards - POST form URL: [http://zapp-16200xxx.local/zrap/chscan/ch1](http://zapp-16200xxx.local/zrap/chscan/ch1) Data: {„cmd“: „On“} I always get an error „400“. Any suggestions why it is not working? Thx a lot Some screenshots: iOS Shortcuts: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/e/d/ed8cc5048b578da1b3acb3f51457f7a0e73dce02.jpeg) Homey: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/2/826d174a549d32064cc1ad5ec842252f5b5132fe.jpeg) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/1/4/14fc00d224aab402ac406b386bc0de23bc107504.jpeg) ---

Thx. Yes, I did. I believe I have read any post in the forum about HTTP requests. I want to replace http requests in Shortcuts with http requests in Homey. So, my problem is not related to the post you recommended. Thx anyway. ---

The iOS version is requesting `…/ch1` but the Homey version is requesting `…/ch` (missing a trailing “1”). Also, the iOS version is using lowercase “off” but the Homey version is using _start case_ “On”. ---

Thx all for your help. I found a different command which works. I am using the „logic web request“ command instead of http request. Code structure is same as used in iOS Shortcuts. See screenshot below. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/1/91e221c73f27249b688ce9965ff46f7386ac87db.jpeg) ---

Hi all. Sorry for my late reaction. Maybe the difference is that my app sends the form variables with the querystring of the url request and the homey native card puts them in the body. I’m happy you were able to solve this using the native card. ---
