I use a Windows phone7 (not windows mobile) and looking for a addon to send a message (by trigger) to a api.

On WP7 it is very easy to send push message using a special message app.
You can use a api to send any message to your phone, the only thing you need is as user is to buy the app and generate a special API key which you send with each message you want the phone to receive.

The API connectes should connect to a website and send the message using the API, instantly you get a push message on your phone with you message. This could be easily used reporting messages from vera to my phone, the same as automater does for IOS

Can someone tell me if it is easy to make an addon that sends a message to a specific url triggering the API?

You’re talking about exactly what Prowl does for the iPhone…

yep indeed, as far as i can see does this IOS Growl app exactly the same as the windows app i am refering to.

The question remains then…
How easy is it to make a addon that can submit a message using an API so message can be send?
May for both systems? (maybe there is an android app also what does the same, then VERA could send message to all smart phones

If it is just a specific url you have to call then it should be easy. You dont need a plugin. You can put a few lines of LUA-Code in a trigger/scene or in a sensor…

luup.inet.wget("urltocall")
