API: Device types

From Yombo
Jump to: navigation, search

Summary

A device type defines what commands can be used for a certain device. For example, lamp modules can be turned on, off, set to a brightness level, or a few other types of commands. Device types are added to modules to determine what devices a module can manage.

GET - All device types

Retrieve all device types available to the current user.

DELETE - Delete a device type

Delete a device type. This doesn't actually delete the device type right away, but simply marks it for deletion later. This is the same as setting the status to 2. To undelete the device type, simply change the status back to 1.

Request URLs

  • DELETE https://api.yombo.net/api/v1/device_type/{device_type_id}

Parameters
