Custom device

  • Hello!

    Can i connect my custom built device, with my own firmware, to the shelly cloud?
    Is there any API specification for this?

    Thanks,

    Paulo Gonçalves

    Hi Paulo, welcome to the forum. :)

    Sorry, there is no way.

    original firmware --> shelly cloud

    third party firmware --> no connect to shelly cloud

    Have a nice weekend.:)

  • I wish I could put the Shelly firmware on some Sonoffs I have. I was underwhelmed with eWeLink and put Tasmota on them, but I'm not much happier with that. I went with the Sonoffs because I really wanted the rf control so I could use the remote in a room that has no switch wiring. (Previously, to turn the overhead light on/off in that room you had to go out of the room to switch in the stairwell.) The Sonoffs gave me the control options I wanted, but I wish I could integrate them in the Shelly app/cloud. I much prefer the look/feel and options in the Shelly firmware.

    Sorry,

    but there no way into the cloud without the original firmware.

  • Yes, I understand. ? I imagine that would be a security nightmare in addition to increasing Allterco's server and hosting fees.

    If it weren't for different pin-outs, I'd have tried to install the Shelly firmware on the Sonoff.
