[Solved] Can you help me make a POST to Shelly using x-www-form-urlencoded calls?

[muneer]

Hooray

Use all the parameters in the URL

@muneer I would be very happy if it worked, but this was the first test I had done, but it doesn’t work for me. Can you tell me if you did anything in particular?

[muneer]

Will send you the details when I’m back home.

Thanks, I can’t figure it out, I’m still testing but I can’t get it to work, I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong.
Maybe I can share the project with you to look for the error

[muneer]

This is how the full URL should look like

https://shelly-25-eu.shelly.cloud/device/relay/control?auth_key=XXXXXX1dWlkA7346C7C02D00A2803F9DA01D2061F3EXXXXXX74E52C07264554975660A35E61A6598134206A2B&id=XXXX9999XXXX&channel=0&turn=on

doesn’t work or rather I made a strange discovery.

It works with shared devices that you are not the direct owner of.

So it worked for you with the device I shared with you.

In fact, the response you receive is as follows.

{“isok”:true}

Instead the response from proprietary devices is as follows.

{“isok”:true,“data”:{“device_id”:“e8dbxxxxb098”}}

So in conclusion the solution that worked for you , does not work with proprietary devices that respond with the following error:

{“isok”:false,“errors”:{“wrong_channel”:“Could not control this relay channel!”}}

[muneer]

I sent you a PM with a working solution using your device ID and your authentication key.

Sample output

[muneer]

The solution is something I have suggested earlier but now I tried it myself and can conform it works.

I want to thank @muneer for your patience and the solution about my big problem
