dynamic temperature?

[stiech82]

hello,

is it possible to set a dynamic temperature? I tried it with "msg.payload" at temperature, but i got this error back "AxiosError: Request failed with status code 422"

I set with a function msg.payload like "22".

Hi,

I'm not sure exactly what your setup looks like but you should be able to use the setZoneOverlay function call. A dynamic temperature can be set by sending in a message with msg.temperature set to the required temperature. If you're getting back a 422 though I'm slightly nervous that you're trying to set the temperature on an AC unit. I don't have any AC and this it seems to return a 422 occasionally.

Thanks

Thanks,

you are right, i am using a AC unit.

But i can try it. How i set the setZoneOverlay with a function call? I found a lot and tried something, but maybe i used it wrong?

I set "setZoneOverlay" with your function. What i have to set more on this function? I am not good in this :(

Hi,

Apologies for the delay in replying. Something similar to the following flow should get you started. If you get a 422 back then please let me know what the error is - AC has typically been problematic but there's been a few patches over summer that should have fixed the functionality - please also double check that you're on the latest release (0.10.4).

Thanks

Hi @stiech82, Did this fix you issue? Are you happy for me to close? Thanks

[stiech82]

i can't get it.

I'm not good at this and tried your excample, but i think i am to stupid. I got no response. I don't know how to config your example.

Hi, I'm finally tidying up some of the open issues (apologies) - did you ever resolve your issue? I believe the flow above should have fixed your issue. Thanks
