This plugin is based on the Beacon plugin by Fredrik Furtenbach last updated in 2016.
It has been updated for Indigo 2022.X (Python 3). It now uses the Indigo Reflector service and does require port forwarding to be set up.
Instead of a port number in the plugin config dialog you must provide a Reflector API key.
See https://www.indigodomo.com/account/authorizations/ for more information. On plugin startup,
the URL to be used in the mobile apps will be displayed. It will look something like this:
https://XXX.indigodomo.net/message/se.furtenbach.indigo.plugin.beacon/webhook?api_key=XXX-YYY-ZZZ-111-2345678
You must copy the entire URL to the mobile app. I recommend using email, SMS, or Notes to copy it to your devices.
