Separate HTTP and API passwords

[mrgrumpy83 (Tom Anderson)]

I’ve got external access configured and working just fine over HTTPS, and am working on setting up some automations with IFTTT. This actually works really well, but I don’t like the fact that it requires the HTTP password in the maker configuration.

Is there a way to specify a different password for the API? Is there a way to limit what devices and functions this password has access to?

Not at the moment.

No, scoping is not available for API access.
