TUYA API (Setup, Basics and FREE FINGERBOTS)

Күн бұрын

In todays video we are looking at how to setup a Tuya Cloud Project. We will be running through all steps required including creating a developer account, setting up a project, setting up required APIs, connecting our Tuya / Smartlife app and importing our IOT devices and finally controlling a Fingerbot with the Tuya API Explorer. In this video we will be making use of the Adaprox Tuya Fingerbot which can be won by entering Tuyas competition.
Tuya is currently running a competition to encourage developers to create fun IOT projects. By completing "Missions" you can earn various prizes including a Free Fingerbot Robot, a $7 voucher and a $35 voucher.
For more information on the competition check out : pages.tuya.com/develop/ClickA...
In the coming weeks I will be working on and sharing my own projects that utilize the Tuya API to control a robotic vacuum. I will also be updating my Local Tuya Key Extractor Project to make use of some of Tuya's API calls.
Curious about the Fingerbot?

just a small point; tuya devices primarily run locally now, and only connect to the cloud to update the devices status. you can try this yourself - unplug your broadband (but keep your hub on) and you can still control your lights etc. also means there's virtually no lag these days.

Hi Mark - great video - i want to call these APIs from make/integromat. Calling the apis you demonstrate here is easy, however, I need to setup the headers for each request, so what api calls do i need to make to authenticate and get whatever tokens I need to pass in the header of subsequent calls? Do you have a video on this or can u point me to an articel somewhere explaning the proces?

@MarkWattTech 3 жыл бұрын

As far as I have seen, and from the guys at Tuya I have spoken to - it’s a very broad “more devices” at the moment. I will speak to them today and see if I can get a proper answer to your question for my new video that will be out this week 👍🏻

@bossybill7437 3 жыл бұрын

I curious what Tuya's Business Model is? As in, how do they make money? Obviously running the cloud, providing support, and so on, costs, at least, a small fortune. Since 'we' (end-product consumers) buy Tuya based product, there is some revenue for them there (via H/W manufacturers) but that's hardly a viable longer term revenue stream. I ask because it's actually more than simple 'curiosity'. Personally, I do not want to invest my time and resources (either buying more Tuya product or this API development venture) into a dead end or one that will turn around and trap me in some other kind of got'cha. As many of us have recently learned with Google, 'we' are their Product, not their Client. I hope this is not the case with Tuya.

@MarkWattTech 3 жыл бұрын

Heya :) I believe they create there revenue via api licenses and smaller company’s paying them to utilise there software development platform. The Tuya platform is huge. And very simple for small company’s to creat apps and other tools to integrate with the Tuya cloud. I dont know what percentage etc they make from it, but you can see some of the corporation and enterprise packages on there website. You are able to use a free version of the Tuya cloud which is given to your for free when you create an account. This is free for a set number of projects and devices and this tier will always be free.

@Pentols 2 жыл бұрын

No subscription now... What happens when they get massive amounts of people using them then change to a paid service. It could certainly happen. Local tuya is the way, if a device can't be flashed as is the way with most of the recent ones

It could happen at some point yes. But its not currently in Tuyas business plan. I will be creating a new video for the Tuya HA Tuya integration in the coming weeks showing how to utilise more devices.
