Using Big5 HTTP I am now able to successfully send commands through the SmartThings REST API and control devices on the SmartThings hub. I am able to turn lights on/off, set levels of dimmer switches and various other things. Device response is near instantaneous. Using webCORE and JSON commands I am also able to monitor device changes on SmartThings and keep HS3 and SmartThings in sync with one another.
Using RegEx statements I was able to keep the number of required steps for each ST device down to a minimum. One single HS3 event will either turn on, turn off or set dim level for a device on SmartThings. No need to create multiple events in HS3 for each device's individual actions. My desire to be able to set dimmer levels on either platform and keep each in sync with the other required just a little RegEx magic but saved tons of time.
When I get some extra time I'll post a "how-to" if there is any interest.
