My.openhab.org API overview

Apps & Services myopenHAB

Hi,

since the communication between my UWP Windows app and my openHAB installation works pretty well in my local environment (with authentication, certificates etc…), i’d like to implement the next big thing: the ability to interact with the my.openhab.org cloud.

To do so, i think i have to register my device against my.openhab.org - this is done by vendor and/ or device specific API calls i found in the sources from the iOS and Android apps, e.g.

Are there any further vendor/device specific API’s (Microsoft/Windows)? Or even better, a complete
API documentation of the available my.openhab.org interfaces?

Can somebody point me in the right direction?

Many thanks in advance!

If your app is an OH front end, there really is nothing you need to do special for the cloud. My.openhab basically provides a proxy to the REST API of you OH instance without needing to open a port in your firewall. From the UI’s perspective you just use HTTPS://my.openhab.org as the URL and your my.openhab credentials to log in and from the UI’s perspective it is just as if it were talking directly to your OH.
