Thanks again Michael !! Appreciate your help.
I tried like a million combinations with those keys but no luck.
But I found a way around it. I selected "file" for "Request Body" of the
"Get contents of" command and selected a variable for the "file".
Prior to the "Get contents of" command I lookup a text file on my local
http server which contains the string
"{"id":1,"method":"slim.request","params":["aa:aa:45:03:00:73",["playlist","play","/mnt/music/Geluiden/Ding-dong-sound.mp3"]]}".
And I assigned it to the variable that I then pass onto "file" for
"Request Body".
Okay, this is not the most elegant solution but it works!
In regards to Pushcut: it lets you create an action that executes the
post message. But the action is represented by a button that the user
has to push on the notification Pushcut sends out.
The copy url thing is indeed what you need to do. but this url is pasted
in a "Get contents of" command in a HomeKit shortcut. That triggers the
PushCut notification. When the notification appears on your phone, you
need to pull it down and that reveals the action button of the action
created in Pushcut. When the user presses the button it will then send
the post message. And that is not what I want.
Anyway, I found a way that works. It is a pity how Apple treats HomeKit.
HomeKit supports shortcuts but this is a subset of the Shortcuts app
from Apple. I was able to create a working shortcut in the Shortcuts
app. But due to the poor shortcuts implementation in HomeKit I couldn't
get it to work in HomeKit. There are some things I really don't
understand in Apple's way of reasoning. Why just not integrate the
Shortcuts app into HomeKit; that would make HomeKit a hell of a lot more
powerful...
