The guys looking after the server say their server received:

6f 66 66 2f 72 2f 6e

which is a literal translation. But what they actually need is:

6f 66 66 0d

Carriage Return and Newline are *backslashes*, not *forward slashes*.

Hello i'm trying to send a post command to Home Assistant to control a light but having trouble to translate the format of the message, can somebody help me?

The message i'm trying to send is:

curl --location --request POST 'https://192.168.0.39:8123/api/services/light/turn_off' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpc3MiOiI5NjMxM2UzNTA1ZTc0ZWFlYmViZjEwMTg0MjE5NzlhNSIsImlhdCI6MTY2NTQyMDQ1MywiZXhwIjoxOTgwNzgwNDUzfQ.V8MO9vFarLCYsXBcq0ol6ZSiZiLb6JGrPp1wqMTg0Mj' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \
--data-raw '{"entity_id": "light.kid"}'

I tried to put https://192.168.0.39:8123/api/services/light/turn_off in Web Address field and 

Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpc3MiOiI5NjMxM2UzNTA1ZTc0ZWFlYmViZjEwMTg0MjE5NzlhNSIsImlhdCI6MTY2NTQyMDQ1MywiZXhwIjoxOTgwNzgwNDUzfQ.V8MO9vFarLCYsXBcq0ol6ZSiZiLb6JGrPp1wqMTg0Mj; Content-Type: application/json&ampContent-Type: text/plain; {"entity_id": "light.kid"}

In Post Data field but it is not working, i get a message in Home Assistant that there was ilegal login from ip address of the controller.

When i use this request from postman its working ok.

Any suggestions?

You need to add your username and password to the url.  Like this:

https://username:password@192.168.0.39:8123/api/services/light/turn_off'

Hi you can make your curl request

curl --location --request POST 'https://192.168.0.39:8123/api/services/light/turn_off' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpc3MiOiI5NjMxM2UzNTA1ZTc0ZWFlYmViZjEwMTg0MjE5NzlhNSIsImlhdCI6MTY2NTQyMDQ1MywiZXhwIjoxOTgwNzgwNDUzfQ.V8MO9vFarLCYsXBcq0ol6ZSiZiLb6JGrPp1wqMTg0Mj' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \
--data-raw '{"entity_id": "light.kid"}'

so in your LUA driver

function Light_OFF()
local data = "{\"entity_id\": \"light.kid\"} " 

local headers = {}
headers["Content-Type"]   = "application/json"
headers["Content-Type"]   = "text/plain"
headers["Authorization"]  = "Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpc3MiOiI5NjMxM2UzNTA1ZTc0ZWFlYmViZjEwMTg0MjE5NzlhNSIsImlhdCI6MTY2NTQyMDQ1MywiZXhwIjoxOTgwNzgwNDUzfQ.V8MO9vFarLCYsXBcq0ol6ZSiZiLb6JGrPp1wqMTg0Mj"  

local ticketId = C4:urlPost("https://192.168.0.39:8123/api/services/light/turn_off", data, headers, true, Process_LightOFF)
end

 

function Process_LightOFF(ticketId, strData, responseCode, tHeaders, strError)
  print("Light response")
  print("strData: " .. strData) 
  print(responseCode)
end

If you guys are going to update this driver is it possible to have a way to send data for variables to Control4?  Currently I can send commands like http://192.168.1.12:52690/OfficeLightOn, but is there any way you could have it accept URLs like http://192.168.1.12:52690/SetVariables?Temp1=26 where Temp1 is a variable that is existing in Control4?  Or something similar?

Or is there another way to do this currently?

You can use this driver for that.

https://github.com/itsfrosty/control4-2way-web-driver/tree/master
 

i’v been using it for couple of years to send data to control4 and chowmain tcp driver to send data from Control4
