Is it possible?

Postby Jmcadsl » Wed Aug 09, 2023 5:57 am

Hello.
Im looking the way to control some wifi devices , like a wall socket 220vc, with an esp32 wifi module.
The idea its that when A sensor connected fisically (wired) to the board the Esp can send a command Via Wifi to activate the wifi wall socket.

Thanks.

Depending on the make and model of device to control, this is possible, hard, or impossible.
Some vendors try and lock up their devices more or less to be used only via their own app/web interface, while others provide an HTTP/rest API an ESP can easily use; still others can be controlled (e.g. by an ESP) via MQTT, either locally/private or (only) through the vendor's cloud solution.
