Excellent plugin qui me permet de gérer l’ouverture de mon garage en rentrant d’une sortie sans avoir à sortir le téléphone ou une télécommande (call api vers ma box domotique Jeedom). Simple et efficace, c’est un must have !!

What a fantastic app. I came here looking for a way to make API calls over wifi without being connected to my phone via Bluetooth, and that's exactly what I found. Thanks so much! I've used it to control my Nuki smart lock.

Hi, very strange, you are the first that report this kind of things... Could you use the "contact the developper" button and send me more informations ? Please explain, what device do you use, what is the error, give me the error code if it apply, explain if the connectivity is direct (WiFi/LTE) or through the smartphone, etc ... As a reminder, remember that "timeout" (or -300 code) is probably due to lake of connectivty from your smartphone to the server that you try to call, or because server is http (not https, whereas that is not permitted par Android and IOS).

Great app with concise and clear documentation. It's adding more value and usefulness to the Garmin watch. I'm using it to control and query multiple connected devices that I developed.

Its awesome. What improvements I would like to see - autorun (for example when I open the widget the action defined with something like autorun:true to be run) - autoclose (after I run an action automatically close the widget) Great work.

This app is great and has excellent documentation. Thank you for your efforts. The only problem is that none of my configs will save in Garmin Express ConnectIQ app config area. Once I save them and go back in, they're gone. Can't get the app to work because of this. Using Garmin Express on the Mac. Cheers.

Very useful especially since it can execute apicalls via WiFi - which it seems smart things cannot do The only annoyance- and maybe this is a spotify bug - is when you execute a WiFi apicall sync then Spotify changes the random play setting for music play to off !

It's a great widget, but the new version doesn't work on Android either. :( Is unable to save the configuration.

The widget is really good. I love it! I integrated it into Node Red and after that it's a breeze to use. The documentation is understandable and with examples. Thanks a lot for this. !!! Attention. After the last update, for iOS, to 4.49, you can no longer enter the JSON lines correctly. The widget still works but you can no longer make changes. Garmin has changed something and ConnectIQ now always opens for setting.

Useful and easy to configure with a JSON like format. The app works as promised, allowing you to make and display api calls from your watch, with or without a phone (when in WiFi range). I wrote a simple and free backend using runkit.sh , and use this app to display the date and time of upcoming Jewish holidays like Shabbat. But I am also excited to use it to get currency conversions, and to automate IoT devices. The developer is excellent, and responsive. I pinged thedl developer with a question and got helped quickly. I am very happy with this app and donated to the project because it's great and free as in beer

Great tool but forced brackets in POST makes it incompatible with openhab. Needed to create an apache cgi broker for it. Please add blank content feature.

Absolut spitze, wenn man die Einrichtung mal durchschaut hat. Komplette IFTTT Einbindung aller Smart-Home Steuerungen.

Unfortunately on my Vivoactive 4 I only get KO 300 request timeout when I send an http request. I checked the Request and it works flawlessly when I use a browser. What am I doing wrong?

Great widget. Works perfectly. It took me a while to find out the correct https, but now.... Super.

Great App to use for Smart Home control e.g. with Homematic. Now being able to use Wifi directly finally avoiding the issue with Samsung Smartphone always returnung 3xx Errors if connected via BT.

Works perfectly! Now with the option to use wifi instead of Bluetooth (no https needed in the LAN)

Super Widget zur Steuerung ALLER Smarthomegeräte über IFTTT/Webhooks. Und, es ist gar nicht so komplziert, wie es zunächst vielleicht scheint ! Funktioniert einwandfrei. Super Arbeit !!

This is the app I needed! I managed to opening garage from my Garmin Edge while approaching to my house and open door with my Forerunner watch :). Nice and clean icons and flexible configuration. I had some problems with new version with garmin express app but configuration from ConnectIQ forks fine. Beer for you :)
