Is there an open API that allows data to be graphed by 3rd party apps? Thanks. :)

Nope. That is one of my sore spots towards RK. They had it, I was told it was working and in use by others, and once I got mine I applied for the access. Months went back when I was finally told they didn't have it anymore.

I am working out the bugs of using web scraping to plot my results in Home Assistant. Of course any change to the dashboard will throw it off. Unless you are good at programming and can tap into the AWS MQTT messages that leave the bot. The messages are easy to decipher, but it is all just RGB values being sent off, all the interpretation is done AWS side.

That's to bad. I guess I'll keep waiting for someone to come up with a DIY automated testing solution that is completely open. Until then manual testing works just fine.

I have told them, it would only help to sale the product as we have to many apps to control, and monitor. That is the only good thing about buying into 1 ecosystem, but then stuck with proprietary reagents or consumables. The Bot is so close to being the perfect system. In my opinion just needs API and for it to be able to have the option to run offline. The latter would allow people to develop ways to do the former.

Hydros is about to release its tester, it will be able to do the most needed test, I believe it was all 5 at least. Only problem, they still don't have APIs, and it will use their reagents, not off the shelf.

Just need more and more people asking for it, especially from potential customers. Maybe then they will do it.

@Reef Kinetics please take note. Here is at least one sale you guys are missing out on. Maybe more to, but just didn't hear from them because they may have already read in one of the threads that there are no APIs
