Sinric interfering with Blynk webhooks when using Blynk local server

[cemtes]

First of all, sinric is an awesome service, thanks for providing it.

My issue is pretty specific and involves the interaction of two different services so I understand that it might be tough to solve.

I found out about sinric from the blynk forums and want to use both sinric and blynk in my projects. The problem is, I can't get the blynk webhook widget to work if my project is running sinric. I'm using a nodeMCU for my project and trying to send webhook requests to trigger IFTTT IOT devices. If I use sinric and the blynk cloud server everything works fine, but if I use my local blynk server, webhooks don't work. Everything else works fine.

If I comment out the sinric code, the webhooks work regardless of which server I connect to.

So there seems to be some interaction between the blynk local server and sinric that prevents webhooks from going through. I understand that this isn't really a sinric or a blynk issue, but an interaction between the two but I thought I'd post and see if anyone has any suggestions. I don't have enough programming experience to figure out where the problem is, but I'm hoping that a smarter person can test a similar system, or maybe walk me through figuring it out.

Thanks

hello, could you explain how you did the sinric integration with blynk?

hello, could you explain how you did the sinric integration with blynk?

I didn't really do anything special to integrate them, I just included the sinric and blynk libraries in the same sketch, and defined the sinric and blynk auth keys. Then I wrote my code as I usually would. I have sections of code for blynk buttons and for sending info back to blynk, and I have a section of code to use sinric to send data to my alexa.

Does that answer your question? If you need more specific info, let me know.

Thank you, I thought it would be that way. I use blynk in conjunction with physical buttons, but I'm not sure how to put synric together, so I'd have three ways to trigger it. Could you post an example of how you did it?
