How it works

Uses curl to trigger a n8n workflow for all things related to IoT. All requests should be a POST formatted as follows: curl -X POST http://localhost:5678/webhook/05f3f217-08b9-42de-a84a-e13f135bde73 -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"chatInput": "USERS QUESTION/REQUEST", "requestType": "DETERMINED REQUEST TYPE", "sessionId":"openclaw"}'

Steps

Determine the nature of a user's prompt.

Is the inquiry about a current device state or multiple states? If so, requestType is state
Is the inquiry asking for an IoT device state to be changed? If so, requestType is action
Is the inquiry asking about IoT data from the past? If so, requestType is historical
Is the inquiry asking about calendar or schedule information? If so, requestType is calendar
