Does Shelly Cloud api support Bulk Control to update Schedule Rules?

RayCast

I'm developing a mobile app where I need to update the schedule of several Shelly Plug at the same time.

Since there are about 40 of them, making a request to update 1 by 1 is very costly in terms of efficiency.

Is there a way to do it through bulk control in 1 single request?

Best Regards!

Yeah you can write a script, here are the API docs https://shelly-api-docs.shelly.cloud/gen1/#shelly-p…ettings-actions

Here I have written about schedule_rules on TRV sorry in German, but the url's should be nearly the same TRV - Schedule Rules API

Code

http://192.168.XXX.XXX/settings/relay/0?schedule_rules=0830-0123456-18.5,1030-0123456-20.5

You have to change thermostats to relay and remove schedule_profile from URL the rest is nearly the same. I'll try to translate the 0830-0123456-18.5 code for you

First Block (0830): HourMinute

Second Block (0123456):

0 = Monday

1 = Tuesday

....

6 = Sunday

so 0123456 is Monday to Sunday

Last Block (18.5): at TRV this is temperature 18.5°C,

So I think you have to replace this with something like on or off

Best option would be to set the rule for one device and get the scheme from http://<shellyip>/settings/relay/0

But I hope this helps you

Hello, thanks for answering

I'm currently able to set the schedule_rules via the shelly-cloud API, by doing a POST to:

Code

https://<my-account-access-domain>/device/relay/settings/schedule_rules

to which I send the data:

Code

- auth_key
- go
- enabled
- channel
- schedule_rules

With that I can easily set the schedule of the device. What I need is a variant to run a BULK to update multiple devices at once. Do you know if that function is available in the shelly-cloud API?

Thanks again for the help!

No not that I know, but this should be very easy with an bash script. Or if you have an Plus device it should maybe possible to build a script

Hi RayCast,

take a look to the ShellyActionRouter tool.

https://github.com/shelly-tools/ShellyActionRouter

I use this as batch process for ~20 devices e.g. scene "good night" which switches off all devices and lamps one after the other.
