• Official Website: https://lametric.com
• Icon Support: Yes
• Message Format: Text
• Message Limit: 32768 Characters per message

Setup

You now have to methods of notifying your LaMetric Device:

1. Device Mode: Directly query your LaMetric Device on your local network to send it a notification.
2. Cloud Mode: A secure query to LaMetric's API server in the cloud to send a message to your clock. You will have limited options with this method.

Device Mode Setup

With Device Mode, your Magic Receipe query will directly interface with the LaMetric Time Device on your local network.

1. Sign Up and login to the Developer Webpage.
2. Locate your Device API Key; you can find it here:
3. You now need to know the IP address your device resides on. Your devices IP Address can be found in LaMetric Time app at: Settings -> Wi-Fi -> IP Address

Cloud Mode Setup

Using Cloud Mode, you will interface with your LaMetric Time device through the internet.

1. Sign Up and login to the Developer Webpage.

2. Create a Indicator App if you haven't already done so from here.

   • There is a great official tutorial on how to do this here

3. Make sure to set the Communication Type to PUSH

4. You will be able to Publish your app once you've finished setting it up. This will allow it to be accessible from the internet using the cloud mode of this Magic Receipe Plugin. The Publish button shows up from within the settings of your Lametric App upon clicking on the Draft Vx folder (where x is the version - usually a 1)

5. When you've completed the above steps, the site would have provided you a PUSH URL that looks like this:

   • https://developer.lametric.com/api/v1/dev/widget/update/com.lametric.{app_id}/{app_ver}

   You will need to record the {app_id} and {app_ver} to use the cloud mode.

   The same page should also provide you with an Application Access Token. It's approximately 86 characters with two equal (=) characters at the end of it. This becomes your {app_access_token}. Here is an example of what one might look like:

Receipe

Device Mode receipes are as follows:

• lametric://{apikey}@{hostname}
• lametric://{apikey}@{hostname}:{port}
• lametric://{userid}:{apikey}@{hostname}
• lametric://{userid}:{apikey}@{hostname}:{port}

Cloud Mode syntax is as follows:

• lametric://{app_access_token}@{app_id}
• lametric://{app_access_token}@{app_id}/{app_version}
