Client.CreateSensorAsync(Sensor); returns null?

[niels9001]

I'm trying to create a sensor to create a Hue Tap toggle button (http://www.developers.meethue.com/how-create-hue-tap-toggle-button).

The following code returns null instead of an ID:

Sensor Sensor = new Sensor(); Sensor.Name = "TapsensorToggle"; Sensor.Type = "CLIPGenericFlag"; Sensor.ModelId = "toggle01"; Sensor.ManufacturerName = "Manufacturer"; Sensor.SwVersion = "0.1"; Sensor.UniqueId = "0123456A";

        string ID = await Client.CreateSensorAsync(Sensor);

Are you on version 3.2.3? I've made some changes to the Sensor models this weekend to correct the casing in the Json. That should probably fix this issue.

If that doesn't fix it, please check the raw Json to and from the Bridge (with Fiddler)

This is the JSON that is being sent out:

{"ManufacturerName":"Huetro","ModelId":"toggle01","Name":"TapToggle.18","SwVersion":"0.1","Type":"CLIPGenericFlag","UniqueId":"0123456A"}

The result:

[ { "error": { "type": 6, "address": "/sensors/ManufacturerName", "description": "parameter, ManufacturerName, not available" } }, { "error": { "type": 6, "address": "/sensors/ModelId", "description": "parameter, ModelId, not available" } }, { "error": { "type": 6, "address": "/sensors/Name", "description": "parameter, Name, not available" } }, { "error": { "type": 6, "address": "/sensors/SwVersion", "description": "parameter, SwVersion, not available" } }, { "error": { "type": 6, "address": "/sensors/Type", "description": "parameter, Type, not available" } }, { "error": { "type": 6, "address": "/sensors/UniqueId", "description": "parameter, UniqueId, not available" } } ]

I think the error is in the capitals in the strings.. E.g. "ManufacturerName" instead of "manufacturername".

Yes, you should update to that latest version (3.2.3). Is already fixed.

Ah, sorry for the confusion. Thanks!
