    When will the official Mac app support the Twist? Maybe you could update the app prior to supporting the Twist to inform customers that the app does not yet work with the Twist to save people the frustration of futilely attempting to pair their Twist with an app that does not yet support it. Maybe you could update your documentation anywhere about this.

    Hello Community,

    I'm currently working with the Flic Hub SDK and facing an issue with making authenticated HTTP requests to the SMS Burst API. Despite the script working correctly on my local Node.js environment, I consistently receive a 401 Unauthorized error when running it on the Flic Hub.

    Here's a brief overview of what I'm trying to achieve and the steps I've taken so far:

    Goal:

    To make an authenticated GET request to the SMS Burst API from the Flic Hub SDK environment.

    Approach:

    I am using Basic Authentication, encoding the API key and secret in Base64 and setting it in the Authorization header.

    Here's a snippet of the script I'm using which does not work:

    const http = require('http'); const burstAPI_Key = 'api_key_here'; const burstAPI_Secret = 'API_secret_here!'; // Headers with API key and secret key const headers = { "x-api-key": burstAPI_Key, "x-secret-key": burstAPI_Secret }; // Making the HTTP request function checkSmsBurstApi() { http.makeRequest({ url: 'https://api.transmitsms.com/get-lists.json', method: 'GET', headers: headers }, function(err, res) { if (err) { console.error("An error occurred:", err); } else { console.log("Response status code:", res.statusCode); // Optionally, log the response body or headers here for more information } }); } // Execute the function to check the API checkSmsBurstApi();

    Issue:

    The script works fine locally on my Node.js setup, but in the Flic Hub SDK, it results in a 401 error.

    I've double-checked the API credentials, and they are correct.

    Questions:

    Are there known issues or specific requirements for making authenticated HTTP requests in the Flic Hub SDK environment?

    Does the Flic Hub SDK handle HTTP headers differently that might affect Basic Authentication?

    Any suggestions or alternative methods that could help resolve this issue?

    I appreciate any insights or advice you can offer. Thank you in advance for your help!

    While some users are disappointed from the Twist, I could use it to control my Hue lights brightness or colour temperature.

    However for SDK integration (i.e. with the great MQTT Project https://github.com/50ButtonsEach/flic-hub-sdk-mqtt-js ) how can we pic up the rotation event ?

    In all examples, I just see subscription to buttonManager.on("buttonSingleOrDoubleClickOrHold", function(obj) { do_something(); }

    but for the Twist there must be a different event which I have not spotted in the documentation yet.

    Thanks,
    Florian.

    Hello Folks,

    I'm searching for a developper to remote control my 3d hologram fan with my flic BUTTON.

    The 3d hologram fan can locally store videos.
    It comes with an app: 3D magic. The purpose of the app is so upload videos (WIFI). The Fan has bluetooth connection for the sound and an IR remote control.

    The idea is to connect the flic button to the phone to control the fan or directly to the fan.

    Here's some informations for third-party control protocols:

    ·The third-party control software must have the network connection function and be on the same LAN as the device or directly connect to the Wi-Fi hotspot of the device.

    1.Enable the third-party Control function, power off and restart the device.

    2.Set up a TCP Client with port 50200. You can obtain the IP address of the device in either of the following ways:
    a.The IP address of the Wi-Fi hotspot is 10.10.10.1.；
    b.The device connects to the router, binds the IP address of the device in the router to prevent the IP address change in the next connection, and then obtains the IP address from the router.

    3.TCP After successful connection, control the device with the following commands:
    0X5B 0X01 0X00 Turn on
    0X5B 0X03 0X00 Stop playing
    ...
    ( I can send more information!)

    Can someone contact me or give me the way to do, or a contact, ....

    Thank you
    Calix
