    How to use Http Get with my.HS

    I have multipule HS3 servers in multiple locations and I currently port forward and send http command to flip virtual switches on/off via tasker. I'm trying to take the next step and close up my ports. How would I send an http command via my.hs to flip a virtual (set status) to on or off?

    If you have the JSON interface enabled you can connect through connected.homeseer.com with your login details from MyHS - example here http://homeseer.com/support/homeseer..._with_json.htm

      Why thank you that did just what I was looking for.

      I'm really new to all this, but I'm going to assume that my next security step will be to remove the user and password from the http request? But this has to be alot more secure then just opening up homeseer ports as I was doing before.

        Resurrecting this thread as I was just trying to determine if specifying a specific host was possible via MyHS with a JSON command. I've got a couple of HS instances in different places (and may add more) and signed up for MyHS Premium but not sure how to direct a command to a particular HS server (other than setting up separate users which isn't preferred).

        Anyone figure this out?

          Yes, setup different users is the anwser. I use my main username for everything still but i created a user with "myusername.home" and another one something like "myusername.2ndhouse" or I use city names, but I use these just for this case only.

            Cool, thanks. I set it up in MyHS and seems to work well. Many thanks!
