Is it possible to determine the name of a homekit service that has been changed in home app #390

Closed Azmatron closed 3 years ago

For example, if I name a homekit service "door1" and then rename it "backdoor" in the home app, is there a way to capture/retrieve this within the API?

In general case - NO. Some services include "Configured Name" characteristic which in fact is stored inside accessory (and shared across all clients), e.g. INPUT SOURCE service (which is a satellite service for TELEVISION service) has CONFIGURED_NAME characteristic.
