HTTP Devices
Edge Driver
By Todd Austin
This SmartThings Edge Driver creates virtual devices, with have a built-in HTTP Request capability to notify external LAN-based devices/apps of commands and state changes.
Currently supported device types:
- switch
- dimmer
- momentary button
- contact sensors,
- motion sensors
- alarms
- temperature+humidity sensors
This driver provides an alternative to the generic Web Requester driver.
This edge driver creates a master HTTP Device Creator device, which can be used to create virtual devices of the specified type.
Each virtual device created by the HTTP Device Creator device can be configured to send HTTP (GET, PUT or POST) requests upon device state changes. For sensors devices the user can manually adjust the sensor value via the device's detailed view in the SmartThings App.
