to get this connected to a device, what is everyone using. This plugin makes a webhook and then you send it to the device? or it connects to another service and then connects to that device? Like is IFTTT being used?

@d0n4v4nb3ck3r This plugin can call a http api of a device when a HomeKit device is triggered or receive http calls to change a HomeKit devices state. If Honeywell T9 Thermostat supports a web api, you can connect it. If it only supports IFTTT, then you could open a port to the web hook of this plugin and trigger it via IFTTT Maker Channel (web calls). But I would not recommend opening ports as this is a security issue an call are not encrypted see #68 .

So I have a developer account with Honeywell on https://developer.honeywellhome.com/api-methods?field_smart_method_tags_tid=39

From looking over this, I should be able to link this to your plugin? anyway you can help? are you on slack?

No time for much support. But looks like it would work. Maybe you should try this first https://www.npmjs.com/package/homebridge-honeywell-home . Looks like this is what you want.

Ha I have tried that, doesn’t work

@d0n4v4nb3ck3r well, if you set the http call correctly you should get it to work with this plugin.
