So, I have a Yale door lock that has a "privacy mode" that is enabled via a parameter. I'd like to be able to turn this on/off either via a Scene (which can then be activated via JSON api) or via the JSON api directly (which from what I can see doesn't look like it's possible).

Is there any way to automate setting a parameter?


You can actually do this via the JSON web API, though there's not any documentation written on it it yet. You can also do this using the Service Reference DLL at Github. You'd need to add this DLL to another project (with Visual Studio) and then you can access various methods, one of which is the ability to set params.

Ryan,

Can you tell me how to do it via the JSON API? Thanks!
