Avi-on

Support for the Avi-on Bluetooth dimmer switch Avi-on.

Setup

If you want to add your devices manually (like in the example below) then you need to get the API key. The API key can be obtained by executing the following command:

$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{"email": "[email protected]", "password": "password"}' \
    https://api.avi-on.com/sessions | jq

with the email and password fields replaced with those used when registering the device via the mobile app. The pass phrase field of the output should be used as the API key in the configuration.
