      Hi
      I've developed an app for Hubitat Home Automation, that allows users to control their Hubitat devices with Flic Buttons and Flic Twist.

      For Flic buttons there is nothing to configure in the Flic app, as each button press is already unique.

      But for Flic Twist, we have to configure virtual devices and action messages in the mobile app. I have built dynamic instructions into my app to guide users through this process, but one little typo in a device name or message breaks the link.

      Is there a way to pragmatically create and configure virtual devices and action messages over TCP / via studio, without having to use the mobile app?

          In a 2018 post you noted that the Flic team were working on "more programatic approach" to "configure the hub without the use of a phone"... I am assuming this got shelved?

          I understand the security implications of exposing the hub config in this way...

          Would you consider a read-only export of Studio configuration (so my app can at least point out mistakes in the user config), or a write-only import format, even if still gated behind local access?
