Hi all – using the local or remote API, running the zone/simulate route:

curl -X "POST" "https://192.168.1.117:8080/api/4/zone/simulate?access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN" \
 -H "Cookie: access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN"

...returns a 500:

HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error
Content-type: text/html
Content-Length: 62
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: *
Connection: close
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2017 03:10:44 GMT
Server: lighttpd/1.4.32

{ "statusCode": 1, "message": "Exception occurred !" }

The docs seem to mention that there should be some sort of body, but I have no clue what it should be:

"Returns the suggested watering duration in seconds and field capacity size in mm from the zone properties sent in the request body."

Any thoughts?

  Hi,

  Thank you for the wonderful Python API.

  I updated the docs with the proper body. What you need to send it's the zone properties (that you get from GET /zone/properties):

   

   {
   "ETcoef": 1,
   "type": 2,
   "internet": true,
   "savings": 50,
   "slope": 1,
   "sun": 1,
   "soil": 1,
   "group_id": 1,
   "history": true,
   "waterSense": {
   "fieldCapacity": 0.0,
   "rootDepth": 0,
   "appEfficiency": 0.0,
   "isTallPlant": 0,
   "permWilting": 0.0,
   "maxAllowedDepletion": 0.0,
   "precipitationRate": 0.0,
   "allowedSurfaceAcc": 0.0,
   "referenceTime": 661,
   "detailedMonthsKc": [
   1.0,

   ],
   "soilIntakeRate": 0.0
   }
   }
