Overview#
The Samsung SmartThings API allows you to interface with various IoT devices within the Samsung SmartThings ecosystem, enabling control and monitoring from a centralized platform. Leveraging this API on Pipedream, you can create automated workflows that respond to device events, control devices programmatically, and integrate IoT data with hundreds of other services for advanced home automation, data logging, and smart notifications.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
smartthings: {
type: "app",
app: "smartthings",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.smartthings.com/v1/devices`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.smartthings.$auth.token}`,
},
})
},
})
Example Use Cases#
Smart Home Security System: Integrate SmartThings with a messaging app like Slack or Twilio on Pipedream. Create a workflow that sends an alert when SmartThings detects unexpected motion in your home or an open door/window after you've set your home status to "Away." This way, you're immediately notified of any potential security breaches.
Energy Consumption Tracker: Pair SmartThings with Google Sheets on Pipedream to monitor and log energy usage. Set up a workflow that records power consumption data from SmartThings-compatible plugs and switches to a spreadsheet. This can help you analyze trends over time, identify high-usage devices, and optimize energy usage to save on bills.
Automated Lighting Scenarios: Use the SmartThings API with a weather app like OpenWeatherMap on Pipedream. Design workflows that adjust your SmartThings-connected lights based on real-time weather conditions. For instance, as sunlight dims on cloudy days, your indoor lights could automatically brighten to maintain a consistent ambiance.
Authentication#
Name Slug: smartthingsSamsung SmartThings uses API keys for authentication. When you connect your Samsung SmartThings account, Pipedream securely stores the keys so you can easily authenticate to Samsung SmartThings APIs in both code and no-code steps.
Personal access tokens are used to authorize interaction with the API for non-SmartApp use cases. Personal access tokens can be created on the personal access tokens page. See docs
