Maybe the Jetty client was blocked because of too many failed requests?
Hi, Is it possible to react to an http with this addon?
I have a switch that can send an http command. This command is changeable.
I would like to pick this up.
a URL for switch is on. A URL for switch is off.
Is it possible?

Thatās what the REST API is for.
Oh thx
Can you give examples, what you want to achieve? you can shorten the URL.
I try it.
I have a Shelly device and this can send an āhttp actionā.
When a switch is pressed, a simple link is sent. This also works in the browser.
For example, Http://ip/light/0?turn=off
This is the syntax for these shelly devices.
I want to send this http action to my openhab to switch a virtual switch.
Iāve looked at the REST API and Iām just finding stuff with curl. I donāt think it works with Shelly.
I want to send a link to openhab like:
Http://ip/item/dummyswitch/on
Is that possible in any way?
The shelly-binding doesnāt work properly for me
It is only possible to define a simple URL with GET options ?
What do you have running on your system ? Is there an apache or nginx service running on it ?
If yes it would be possible to define a simple CGI script that is used to run curl.
An other option would be to run a simple http server based on perl or python. Once the shelly connects to that server the curl action is executed.
Another option is to use the MQTT protocol instead. Youād need an MQTT broker (use Mosquitto), and the openHAB MQTT binding. I think you also need to enable MQTT somewhere within the Shelly device settings too. But thereās many MQTT examples on the forum, and many Shelly MQTT examples too!
Thank you for replying.
I have an Apache server on the LAN. I could use this one.
For MQTT there is an option in the shellys.
This MQTT broker is a standalone software again?
Thank you again for the answers. Iām thinking about it
If you use Mosquitto then yes, it is standalone.

There has been a fair amount of effort put into making that work. I know there has been a recent Shelly firmware change that caused hiccups for openHAB, but is now sorted out.
Have you tried to get help for getting this working?
Yes, I am also active in the other thread.
hi,
Is there any way to achieve the http (GET) command without authentication?
when selecting the blank in the drop down for authentication type , and saving, it seems to use āBasic authenticationā (also for re-editing the thing it will show basic)
the result in logs:
Could not find authentication result for 'http://192.168.1.219/', failing here
thanks.
Please show the full log. In my setup it works. I guess you need authentication (401 Unauthorized) is the only way to reach that part of the code.
Excuse the ignorance: does this mean that those on OH 2.5.x canāt use this binding anymore? Or are the earlier versions available somewhere?
Exactly. There is no version for 2.5.x available because this is a new binding and these will not be backported.
HTTP binding - openHAB 2 version
ā¦in that case, probably worth changing the title of this thread to avoid confusion.
Given OH3 isnāt available yet (and for quite some people itās even_farther_ away because they have specific issues to cover in their production that the day 1 release will not meet, think those to use v1 bindings that no v2 replacement is available for), it would be a kind and helpful move of yours to provide a 2.5.9 jar.
So people can start migrating today.

Unfortunately this is not possible. Since OH3 requires some refactoring, I canāt easily produce an OH2 compatible version any longer.
why not upload any of the older jars ?
Hereās the one I use org.openhab.binding.http-2.5.8-SNAPSHOT.txt (57.5 KB, rename to .jar)
