Newbie needing help

[Shaun Pillai]

Hi all , I've just discovered Trigger CMD and hoping it can help with my problem.

I'm running my home automation on VERA. I'm trying to run http commands remotely.

IFTTT does not list vera in their compatible apps. Webhooks would have been an option but it can only be used for public urls.

Here's my example. If THIS (Flic button is pressed)
THEN (Garage Lights on)
This is the http to trigger the garage lights on scene :http://192.168.0.101:3480/port_3480/data_request?id=lu_action&output_format=json&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=RunScene&SceneNum=57

I'm really not literate in programming and hoping someone would please assist with this issue step by step.

@shaun-pillai, if I understand correctly, you probably need to:

1. Install curl from here.

2. Add a TRIGGERcmd command called GarageLightsOn that runs this command:

   curl http://192.168.0.101:3480/port_3480/data_request?id=lu_action&output_format=json&serviceId=urn:micasaverde-com:serviceId:HomeAutomationGateway1&action=RunScene&SceneNum=57

3. Setup your IFTTT Webhook with these settings:
   Method: POST
   Content Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
   Body: token=(your token from the instructions page)
