Getting values on a virtual sensor following a http request

vincent chapelain shared this idea 9 years ago
Under Consideration

Hello


I'm trying to find a way to add a virtual sensor, where the value would be the one from following a http request.


ex a rule ask for a http request, the zipabox receive a value, and the value is becoming the one for that virtual sensor.


Is there a simple way to do that ?


In fact I'm trying to get valurs from my Netatmo weather station. I can get them following a http request, but seems can't be integrated in the box or Zipabox android application.


Imperhome can do that, other boxes can do that, not possible for Zipa ?


Many thanks.


Regards

You can make a virtual make and then send the values from the NetAtmo to the Zipabox.


But the otherway around is not possible without a script/extern device.

Hello, yes I think I can make a virtual make and then send the values from the NetAtmo to the Zipabox, but still can't undertand how to do it ...


Is there any help somewhere to fix the parameters of this virtual sensor ?

Thanks

Use the old UI


>> Make a new virtual METER add it >> go to the config and see what the url is.

Thanks HeroS, but the url will be the one from the virtual meter, not a possibility to add the netatmo one.

Unfortunately I don't think you can get the Zipabox to fetch data via HTTP. It only supports you pushing values to it. So you'll need to have something in the middle pulling data from Netamo and pushing it to the Zipabox.

Yup, you are right. Like a said:
