Call Webhook from Lovelace UI

Configuration

Hi everyone,

I have been searching for hours but couldn’t find a solution. I am trying to call a webhook that triggers a device which is connected to another hub because it isn’t supporter by home assistant yet. (Roller Shutter by NodOn)

The idea is to have a „switch“ in that calls two different webhooks one to open and one to close the blinds. Any idea how to set that up?
I tried it with automations but couldn’t find a solution that calls the hook -aka opens the Weblink

Thanks for you help

I’m using homebridge to accomplish this using their broadlink-http plugin…basically you define a switch with the on and off being http get commands hitting an api (in my case rmbridge running on an android phone that links to my broadlink rm pro’s).

Example from homebridge config:

"accessories": [
{
"accessory": "BroadlinkHttp",
"name": "Test Bar Light",
"switchHandling": "no",
"http_method": "GET",
"on_url": "http://192.168.3.122:19876/code/BL-03161%20on",
"off_url": "http://192.168.3.122:19876/code/BL-03161%20off",
"service": "Switch"
},

Thanks.
Could be an option…
Was is driving me nuts is that I don’t get how it isn’t possible to open a simple Weblink using the onboard functions. There must be something I miss…

There is a way to do this natively!

You have two options.

Or you can make a template switch that calls the URL however you want (perhaps a shell command)

More directly, you can also call this service:
