Hello! I recently purchased a HomeyPro and I would like to use it with a custom Python script to control the devices connected to it. I noticed that there are web API options available, but I’m not sure where to start. Can you guide me through the steps to use the HomeyPro with the API?

Yes you can! An example:

```auto
GET /api/manager/devices/device/ HTTP/1.1
Host: 192.168.0.123
Authorization: Bearer <your api key>

Is it only for local connection? Is there any way to use the web API outside the local connection? @diapolon

How to get the cloudID? Can you share the documentation for this cloud API?  
Thanks.
