iOS app, HA REST to run automation

Configuration
1

I’m trying to find the easiest way for someone with a iPhone to cause the execution of a script or automation in HA when that iPhone does not have the HA app installed.

The use case is so that my family members (iOS users but not HA users) can click an icon on their iPhones and run an automation that turns on the AV receiver, TV, Roku box and selects the correct inputs and Roku channel. (I have the automation set up.)

Is there a way?

Thanks.

I guess you could create bookmarks in Safari and use Webhook triggers.

I’m not an iOS user, but IIRC Siri shortcuts can also be used to trigger webhooks.
