Hi,
As I am new and also not a programmer I want to ask you to do a review of my Cisco Spark integration. Basically my flow is working, but I think it can be done much better.
Goal: Contact BOT and request Temperature of several rooms. Only one user should be allowed to do this.
- Webhook: Receiving Notification, when Bot is contacted
- Parse for MessageID
- Request Message, based on MessageID
- Check for valid Username
- Check for command
I think this part is ok, I do not know it here something could be improved.
But now lets go ahead with the second part, and I am pretty sure, this is not a good implementation:
Upper Flow:
6) Check 4 different TemperatureSensors from Home-Assistant
7) Write the Temperature in a Global Variable
8) Set a Delay to get always the same order
9) Join all 4 Values into one message
10) Store the combined message to another global variable
Lower Flow:
11) Delay to have the temperature values ready when this part is executed
12) Get all neccessary information and prepare new message
13) Send message to Cisco Spark
