@ctaylor, you were so close! I made it work with a couple small tweaks. Here's my code that works.

<?php $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "https://www.triggercmd.com/api/run/triggerSave"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '{"computer":"DS","trigger":"calculator"}'); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); $headers = array(); $headers[] = "Authorization: Bearer (token from instructions page)"; $headers[] = "Content-Type: application/json"; curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers); $result = curl_exec($ch); if (curl_errno($ch)) { echo 'Error:' . curl_error($ch); } curl_close ($ch); ?>

You'll see that I changed this line to use single quotes around the json object.

curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, '{"computer":"DS","trigger":"calculator"}');

And I changed this line to use application/json instead of application/x-www-form-urlencoded because you're passing a json object.

$headers[] = "Content-Type: application/json";

In case you're curious, this is how I tested my test.php script:

docker run -it --rm --name test-script -v d:\appdev\php:/myscript -w /myscript php:7.0-cli php test.php

BTW, I'm curious what your application is.

@russ 👍

I like Xander's idea if you have Alexa. If you have a Google Home, you can setup a shortcut and say anything you want, like:

Hey Google, foobar

You just have to setup a shortcut called foobar for "ask TRIGGERcmd to run foo on bar" (for example).

@mike-cornelison, like Xander wrote, you can use & between your commands to run multiple commands on one command line.

But you said you're running a batch file. So couldn't you just put multiple lines in that batch file? Like so?

start http://127.0.0.1:8086/?x10command=DEVICE~sendrf~%%27A3%%20ON%%27 start http://127.0.0.1:8086/?x10command=DEVICE~sendrf~%%27A4%%20ON%%27

@russ Thanks very much, Russ!

Works perfectly.

Regards.

It's not on the Slack App Directory yet, but you can start using it now.

EDIT: It's in the Slack directory now.

I have just been in a chat with Google Home support and have requested that they add a feature to a share my shortcuts and Google Assistant apps in Google Home with other Google users so other users of my Google Home in my house can make requests of my Google Home without it replying that it doesn't recognize their voice as mine. If this was done on TriggerCMD's side of things I would think I would have to build my numerous shortcuts one by one on each added user's Google Home app and that is not that attractive. I hope it wouldn't be much more difficult for Google to figure out than the way they allow me to share my personal calendar with other users. 🤔 If Google Home had a way to import/export shortcuts from the Home app in bulk I suppose having this happen on the TriggerCMD side would be more attractive to me. Until then I'll just keep using the TriggerCMD "bookmark" feature to allow others access to my smart home features.

Keep up the good work! I love TriggerCMD!

Good idea @tim-s.

Awesome! Excellent work! Came home and activated Update Agent on server. Haven't spent much time with it but individual responses for individual commands is now working perfect it seems and when edited it seems to save the Voice Reply edits the first try. You don't mess around and get right on fixing stuff! Thanks!

@sjo1234, good, yea that's a way around it - I love Google Assistant's shortcuts.

@foyalcolibris972

ok i figured it out

its working great

@smart-leap, here's a Postman example:
TRIGGERcmd Postman example

Problem solved: I had to set an an environment variable for the executable in Path and reboot. Running beautifully!

Thanks, the following didn't work but I reinstalled on a second computer which worked and then copied the original text triggers back to my first PC which now works so must be something wrong with the way the GUI triggers entered into the trigger file in the original instance.

@russ Thanks for a great program. Let me know if you come up with a solution.

Thanks Russ. Will give it a go this weekend, but I think I've got it.

@superpan, you can see here I'm using wayland:

TRIGGERcmd Ubuntu

@parker-reed, yes actually, I did that a while ago. Sorry I never updated this thread.
