Domoticz allows you to interact with all your switches and sensors using JSON, either interactively through a browser or programmatically from a scripting language. In fact, when you interact with the Domoticz UI through your browser by clicking on buttons and such, under the hood it's JSON that actually communicates your changes back to the Domoticz engine (Hint: You can watch this behaviour at any time by enabling developer tools in your browser and watching the network tab's traffic when you change something through the UI. See the section on changing a zwave device parameter for an example, with screenshot). This wiki describes how to use this versatile API.

Warning Stable 2023.2 (and newer)

For users using API calls from outside Domoticz there has been some changes in API calls. They now always should be of the form /json.htm?type=command&param=**command**

For example

/json.htm?type=graph will be /json.htm?type=command&param=graph

/json.htm?type=devices will be /json.htm?type=command&param=getdevices

More info in Forum topic https://www.domoticz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=303581#p303581

The following old RType commands will keep working but will give a deprecation warning eg

[WebServer] Deprecated RType (devices) for API request. Handled via fallback (getdevices), please use correct API Command! (IP nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn)

/json.htm?type=**old command** -> /json.htm?type=command&param=**new command**

"settings" -> "getsettings"
"users" -> "getusers";
"devices" -> "getdevices"
"hardware" -> "gethardware";
~~"events" -> "events"~~
"notifications" -> "getnotifications"
"createdevice" -> "createdevice"
"scenes" -> "getscenes";
"plans" -> "getplans"
"graph" -> "graph"
"scenelog" -> "getscenelog"
"mobiles" -> "getmobiles"
"cameras"-> "getcameras"
"cameras_user" -> "getcameras_user"
"schedules" -> "getschedules"
"timers" -> "gettimers"
"scenetimers" -> "getscenetimers"
"setpointtimers" -> "getsetpointtimers"
"plans" -> "getplans"
"floorplans" -> "getfloorplans"
"lightlog" -> "getlightlog"
"textlog" -> "gettextlog"
"setused" -> "setused"

The following old RType command has no fallback:

"/json.htm?type=events"

The updated syntax is "/json.htm?type=command&param=events&evparam=<eventsparam>"

Format

http://<username:password@>domoticz-ip<:port>/json.htm?api-call

<username:password@> = the username and password to access Domoticz, this is optional, see the Security page for details setting up login.
domoticz-ip = the IP-address or hostname of your Domoticz installation.
<:port> = the port number of your Domoticz installation, this is optional.

eg. http://192.168.1.2:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=$idx&nvalue=0&svalue=79

Hint: You can have a look at the database for the nValue/sValue, or the .cpp code.

Making output more readable

By default, most browser will display the JSON-output in a unordered mess, but some (like FireFox) will recognize it is JSON and show it in a readable manner. To make it more readable you could use a browser plugin that formats the JSON to a more human-readable layout.
For Google Chrome you could use JSONView (Chrome web store). For other browsers a similar extension will probably exist. Look in the extensions/add-on store of your browser.

There are online sites which helps to do the same like https://jsonformatter.org. This site helps to format, tree view and validate JSON.

Authorization

When using some method other than a browser to connect to Domoticz it may be necessary to do Authorization differently. Authorization over HTTP is done by setting the "Authorization" HTTP request header when sending the request to Domoticz. The value of this header is a base64 encoded string of the username and password. When connecting to Domoticz using a browser and the URL method above the browser sets the appropriate header. When creating your own app or script this is not always done for you.

First the username and password are combined into one string "username:password"
This string is encoded using the RFC2045-MIME version of base64
The authorization method and a space i.e. "Basic " is then put before the encoded string.

This results in a header in the following format:

Authorization: Basic QWxhZGRpbjpvcGVuIHNlc2FtZQ==

How the header is send differs per programming language. Check the documentation of the language of your choice on how to set http request headers.

Authorization with parameters (deprecated)

WARNING: from Stable 2023.1 and up API URLs with username and password as parameters are not supported anymore!! Use https://username:password@IP:PORT/json.htm instead.

Sending the User/Pass using Basic-Auth is actually safer as the user/pwd is not send as is, but (base64) encoded and not as part of the URL but in a separate header. And when done over HTTPS, everything is encrypted once more.

~~An other way to set username and password when calling the API is :~~

http://domoticz-ip<:port>/json.htm?username=MkE=&password=OVM=&api-call

MkE= is the base64 encoded username ('2A' in this example)
OVM= is the base64 encoded password ('9S' in this example)

Users

When you use an user and password in this api, the user must have "user" or "admin" rights. See also page User Management
The user also must have the right to access the device (see 'Set Devices' in Edit Users page).

Base64 encode

To encode a string using base64 you could use : codebeautify.org/base64-encode

Response

All responses include a status which is either OK on success or ERR on failure

{
   "status" : "OK"
}

General usage

Please note that many characters are not permitted in URL strings, including spaces, brackets, etc. Depending on which options below you are using, it may be necessary to URL encode the string first. This is also called URI-encoding, escaping or percent-encoding. See URL encode/decode.

As an example, the string:

 This is a test ! (Really)

when properly encoded, looks like this

 This%20is%20a%20test%20%21%20%28Really%29

It's also allowable to use a '+' instead of '%20' to encode spaces (this is normally reserved for HTML forms processing but Domoticz accepts both).

A note on IDXes

There are different categories of IDX values, such as for devices, for scenes, for timers, for hardware devices, etc. Make sure that you are using the correct IDX value when trying the commands below. Device IDXes can be found by looking at the Setup --> Devices tab in the UI. Similarly, Setup --> Hardware will list the hardware category IDXes. See the section(s) on scenes and timers/schedules below to see how to retrieve their particular IDXes or timerIDs using JSON.

Retrieve status of Domoticz instance

You can get the status of a Domoticz instance with:

/json.htm?type=command&param=getversion

{
"DomoticzUpdateURL": "http://www.domoticz.com/download.php?channel=beta&type=release&system=linux&machine=armv7l",

The array result[0] contains a hash/dict with name/value pairs of settings that are relevant to the device in question, in this example a thermostat.
Please note that it will be something like json.result[1] in classic Lua and dzVents script because in Lua an array starts with 1.

Retrieve name / idx of all devices

If you are not sure of the IDX and want to do a quick lookup of name/value pairs to match a device name to its IDX, use

/json.htm?type=command&param=devices_list

which will result in something like (fragment)

		{
			"name" : "Corner Light",

Note that when you use &switchcmd, the http:// or script:// on/off actions of the corresponding switch are executed. If you just want to update the status of the switch in Domoticz without running these actions, use the &param=udevice option instead (see update-section below).

Switching RFY Blinds sun/wind detector on/off

On some type of blinds it is possible to enable/disable the sun/wind detector.

Enable (where the number behind idx is the idx number of the screen in domoticz):

/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=7&switchcmd=EnableSunWind

Disable:

/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=7&switchcmd=DisableSunWind

Set a dimmable light/selector to a certain level

/json.htm?type=command&param=switchlight&idx=99&switchcmd=Set%20Level&level=6

dimmable:
- Some lights have 100 dim levels (like zwave and others), other hardware (kaku/lightwaverf) have other ranges like 16/32
- Level should be the dim level (not percentage), like 0-16 or 0-100 depending on the hardware used
- When the light is off, it will be turned on
Blinds: enter percentage, level will be 0-100
Selector switch: enter the level number (eg 10, 20 or 30) that can be found in the edit section of a switch.
To update in Domoticz only without running it's device actions use /json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=[0,1,2]&svalue=LEVELNR Statuses for Blinds Percentage when using &param=udevice:

      Closed: nValue = 1 and sValue = 100
      partially opened: nValue = 2 and sValue = 1-99
      Open: nValue = 0 and sValue = 0

{
   "status" : "OK",
   "title" : "SwitchLight"
}

Set a light to a certain color or color temperature

Color can be specified as either hue + brightness, RGB + optional brightness or a Domoticz JSON color object

Specify hue and brightness: Hue in degrees, 0..360; Brightness 0..100

/json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=99&hue=274&brightness=40&iswhite=false

{
    "status": "OK",
    "title": "SetColBrightnessValue"
}

Note: There is no saturation parameter, specify RGB format Domoticz JSON color format for full color control

Specify RGB and brightness (optional): RGB as hexadecimal number, RRGGBB without prefix (no 0x or #)

/json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=99&hex=RRGGBB&brightness=100&iswhite=false

{
    "status": "OK",
    "title": "SetColBrightnessValue"
}

Note: The actual brightness of the light is a combination of RGB value and brightness. Brightness parameter may be omitted.

A site like colorhexa can be used to help pick hex values according to desired colours.

Specify Domoticz JSON color object and brightness: Example: Specify color mode with a dim blue color

/json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=130&color={"m":3,"t":0,"r":0,"g":0,"b":50,"cw":0,"ww":0}&brightness=100

{
    "status": "OK",
    "title": "SetColBrightnessValue"
}

Update devices/sensors

Note that when you use this &param=udevice option with the additional option &parsetrigger=false, the device is updated without running the associated on/off- and script actions.

Expert usage. Directly set device parameters via JSON.

Be careful when firing values to domoticz.db as there is a chance to crash the database if parameters are wrong or missing. First go to the devices tab and notice the device index (idx) of the device you want to change

Counter

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&svalue=COUNTER

IDX = id of your device (this number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")
COUNTER = Integer of the overall total counter (Energy, Volume, Custom).

When there is a counter created, there is a possibility to change the units by clicking on "Change" at the utility tab.

Energy (reports kWh), give COUNTER value in Wh, integer
Energy Generated (reports kWh). give COUNTER value in Wh, integer
Gas (reports m³) , give COUNTER value in liter (1000 liter = 1 m³), integer
Water (reports m³), give COUNTER value in liter (1000 liter = 1 m³), integer
Counter (no unit)
Time (min?), seems to be obsolete, use Counter instead and use the time units as desired (eg Sec, min, hrs)

The counter will be treated with the divider which is defined in the parameters in the application settings (menu setup-settings, tab counters). For example if the counter is set to "Water" and the value is passed as liters, the divider must set to 1000 (as the unit is m³). The device displays 2 values:

The status is the overall total volume (or counter).
The volume (or counter) of the day (in the top right corner).

The today's volume (or counter) is calculated from the total volume (or counter).

Counter Incremental

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=INCREMENT

INCREMENT = Integer of the increment of the counter. For Counters the standard counter dividers apply (menu setup - settings - tab counters)

will increment the counter value by 1. To reset an incremental counter, set the svalue to a negative integer equal to the current total of the counter.

Electricity (instant and counter)

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=POWER;ENERGY

IDX = id of your device (This number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")
POWER = current power (W)
ENERGY = Integer, total cumulative energy in Watt-hours (Wh)

(Energy Read type (use edit button to change): Default: From Device. If the device is not able to send the ENERGY counter values you choose "Energy read : Computed". This will ignore ENERGY counter values and Domoticz will calculate the Energy (kWh) internally based on the (previous/current) POWER (Watt) values. By design this is less accurate then using the ENERGY counter when using them "from Device".)

Domoticz will calculate the today values based on the delta's in the total cumulative energy of today.

For Counters the standard counter dividers apply (menu setup - settings - tab counters)

Note: This device will show in Domoticz as type "General, kWh"

Managed counter

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=COUNTER;USAGE

IDX = id of your device (This number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")
COUNTER = Integer, total cumulative counter energy (Wh, can be set to -1 if unknown or unused, in that case it won't show on dashboard or in logs)
USAGE = energy usage in Watt-hours (Wh).

Managed counter will not transfer automatically every day data from device status to history log, it's up to an external script or plugin to insert data in history log database (useful to show non realtime consumption of energy provider that put energy information "in the cloud").

For Counters the standard counter dividers apply (menu setup - settings - tab counters)

To insert data in history log:

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=COUNTER;USAGE;DATE

IDX = id of your device (This number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")
COUNTER = total cumulative counter energy (Wh, can be set to -1 if unknown or unused, in that case it won't show on dashboard or in logs)
USAGE = energy usage in Watt-hours (Wh)
DATE = date with %Y-%m-%d format (for instance 2019-09-24) to put data in last week/month/year history log, or "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" format (for instance 2019-10-03 14:00:00) to put data in last days history log

RETURN2= integer, total cumulative energy return meter tariff 2 in Wh.
CONS= actual usage power (Watt)
PROD= actual return power (Watt)

USAGE and RETURN are total cumulative counters (they should only count up).
For USAGE and RETURN supply the data in total Wh with no decimal point.
(So if your meter displays f.i. USAGE1= 523,66 KWh you need to send 523660)
Domoticz will calculate the today values based on the delta's in the total cumulative energy of today.

For Counters the standard counter dividers apply (menu setup - settings - tab counters)

Air quality

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=PPM

COMMAND = The actual custom OTGW command like TC=20

Note on counters

Usually, counters are updated daily to feed week/month/year history log views. Starting version 4.11774, if you want to disable that behavior to control everything from an external script or a plugin (already the case for managed counter), you can set the "DisableLogAutoUpdate" device option to "true", for instance in a Python plugin:

Domoticz.Device(Name="MyCounter", Unit=1, Type=0xfa, Subtype=0x01, Options={"DisableLogAutoUpdate" : "true").Create()

Starting version 4.11774, you can too directly insert data in in history log. Set the "AddDBLogEntry" device option to "true", for instance in a Python plugin:

Domoticz.Device(Name="MyCounter", Unit=1, Type=0xfa, Subtype=0x01, Options={"AddDBLogEntry" : "true").Create()

With a json the parameter AddDBLogEntry:true should first base64 encoded

/json.htm?type=setused&idx=DEVICE_IDX&name=SENSORNAME&switchtype=SUBTYPE_VALUE&used=true&options=CODE

To set AddDBLogEntry:true, you must call:

/json.htm?type=setused&idx=DEVICE_IDX&name=SENSORNAME&switchtype=SUBTYPE_VALUE&used=true&options=QWRkREJMb2dFbnRyeTp0cnVl

AddDBLogEntry can be combined with other entries in the options field if separated by a semicolon for example to set:

ValueQuantity:2;AddDBLogEntry:true

You call:

/json.htm?type=setused&idx=DEVICE_IDX&name=SENSORNAME&switchtype=SUBTYPE_VALUE&used=true&options=VmFsdWVRdWFudGl0eToyO0FkZERCTG9nRW50cnk6dHJ1ZQ==

Also please note if the device is edited using the domoticz device screen then this AddDBLogEntry disappears and needs to be added again.

Then, depending on counters, you can insert values in history log. For most counters:

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=COUNTER;USAGE;DATE

IDX = id of your device (This number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")
COUNTER = total cumulative counter energy (Wh)
USAGE = energy usage in Watt-hours (Wh)
DATE = date with %Y-%m-%d format (for instance 2019-09-24) to put data in last week/month/year history log, or "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" format (for instance 2019-10-03 14:00:00) to put data in last days history log

Note: COUNTER and USAGE should be positive. Any negative value will result in 0 instead

For multi meters (P1 Smart Meter, CM113, Electrisave and CM180i):

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=USAGE1;USAGE2;RETURN1;RETURN2;CONS;PROD;DATE

IDX = id of your device (This number can be found in the devices tab in the column "IDX")
USAGE1= energy usage meter tariff 1, This is an incrementing counter
USAGE2= energy usage meter tariff 2, This is an incrementing counter
RETURN1= energy return meter tariff 1, This is an incrementing counter
RETURN2= energy return meter tariff 2, This is an incrementing counter
CONS= actual usage power (Watt)
PROD= actual return power (Watt)
DATE = date with %Y-%m-%d format (for instance 2019-09-24) to put data in last week/month/year history log, or "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" format (for instance 2019-10-03 14:00:00) to put data in last days history log

or

/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=IDX&nvalue=0&svalue=USAGE1;USAGE2;RETURN1;RETURN2;CONS;PROD;COUNTER1;COUNTER2;COUNTER3;COUNTER4;DATE

as previously, plus absolute counter values

Additional parameters (signal level & battery level)

There are two additional and optional parameters for the above commands, to specify the signal level (default 12) and the battery level (default 255)

 /json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=<idx>&nvalue=<numeric value>&svalue=<string value>&rssi=<numeric value>&battery=<numeric value>

battery level 255 = no battery device, else 0-100
example: &rssi=10&battery=89

LMS and Kodi (Media Players)

While both Logitech Media Server and Kodi can be controlled by JSON RPC commands sent directly to the URL of the LMS server or Kodi instance, it can be useful to use Domoticz as a tunnel/proxy to send a number of widely-used commands because you may have an external port already open for Domoticz and because Domoticz also supports HTTPS.

LMS

/json.htm?type=command&param=lmsmediacommand&idx=nnn&action=ACTION

where ACTION can be: Left, Right, Up, Down, Favorites, Browse, NowPlaying, Shuffle, Repeat, Play, Pause, Stop, Rewind, Forward, Mute, VolumeUp, VolumeDown, PowerOn and PowerOff.

Kodi

/json.htm?type=command&param=kodimediacommand&idx=nnn&action=ACTION

where ACTION can be: PlayPause, Stop, FastForward, BigStepForward, Rewind, BigStepBack, ShowSubtitles, FullScreen, VolumeUp, VolumeDown, ChannelUp, ChannelDown, Channels Home, Back, ContextMenu, Info, Select, Down, Right, Up, Left

Evohome

These commands work regardless of which of the 3 implementation-modes for Evohome you have chosen for your system (WebAPI, USB device, Scripting). Some of them will also work for e.g. the Honeywell Round WiFi thermostat.

Updating the evohome controller mode

  /json.htm?type=command&param=switchmodal&idx=<idx>&status=<status>&action=<action>&ooc=<ooc>

<idx> id number of the evohome controller device in Domoticz
<status> Auto, AutoWithReset, AutoWithEco, Away, DayOff, Custom, HeatingOff
<action> (1 = run on action script, 0 = disable)
<ooc> (1 = only trigger the event & log on change, 0 = always trigger & log)

Specify an until date

  /json.htm?type=command&param=switchmodal&idx=<idx>&status=<status>&action=<action>&ooc=<ooc>&until=<until>

as above
<until> ISO date time to run until. Format example 2018-09-15T15:53:00 or 2018-09-15T15:53:00+01:00 with timezone.

Note: most controller modes do not support the time part of the ISO data and will only act upon the date portion - this will require at least the next day to be reflected in the date number to successfully trigger an update.

Updating a zone setpoint

  /json.htm?type=setused&idx=<idx>&setpoint=<setpoint>&mode=<mode>&used=true

From Stable 2023.2: /json.htm?type=command&param=setused&idx=<idx>&setpoint=<setpoint>&mode=<mode>&used=true

<idx> id number of the relevant evohome zone device in Domoticz
<setpoint> set point in degrees (will be ignored for Auto)
<mode> Auto, TemporaryOverride, PermanentOverride, FollowSchedule
used must be true

Specifying a date/time for zone TemporaryOverride

 /json.htm?type=setused&idx=<idx>&setpoint=<setpoint>&mode=TemporaryOverride&until=<until>&used=true

From Stable 2023.2: /json.htm?type=command&param=setused&idx=<idx>&setpoint=<setpoint>&mode=TemporaryOverride&until=<until>&used=true

as above
<until> ISO date time for the set point override. Format example 2018-09-15T15:53:00 or 2018-09-15T15:53:00+01:00 with timezone.

In this case, any combination of a date portion and a time portion that are in the future will meet with success.

Turning HotWater ON/OFF

 /json.htm?type=setused&idx=<idx>&setpoint=<setpoint>&state=<state>&mode=<mode>&used=true</source>

From Stable 2023.2: /json.htm?type=command&param=setused&idx=<idx>&setpoint=<setpoint>&state=<state>&mode=<mode>&used=true

<idx> id number of the evohome DHW temp device in Domoticz
<setpoint> set point in degrees (will be ignored)
<state> On, Off
<mode> Auto, TemporaryOverride, PermanentOverride, FollowSchedule
used must be true

Configuring zwave devices

Listing zwave node parameters

~~/json.htm?type=openzwavenodes&idx=ControllerIDX~~

From Stable 2023.2

  json.htm?type=command&param=getopenzwavenodes&idx=ControllerIDX

ControllerIDX = the idx of your OpenZWave USB controller device, as listed under the 'Setup --> Hardware' tab.

Example output:

         "NodeID" : 5,
         .
         .
         .

Note the node_idx towards the end of each device's entry (the "idx" : "11" in the example above for the Neo CoolCam Door/Window Detector). You don't see this node_idx in the regular devices tab for Domoticz, but it is the idx you'll need when changing a parameter through JSON (next section).

Getting the battery levels

  /json.htm?type=command&param=zwavegetbatterylevels&idx=controlleridx

controlleridx = the idx of your OpenZWave USB controller device, as listed under the 'Setup --> Hardware' tab.

Example output:

{
   "result" : [
      {
         "battery" : 255,
         "nodeID" : 17,
         "nodeName" : "Designlamp bij TV"
      },
      {
         "battery" : 255,
         "nodeID" : 19,
         "nodeName" : "Lichtknopje voorkamer"
      },
      {
         "battery" : 100,
         "nodeID" : 33,
         "nodeName" : "Rookmelder"
      }
   ],
   "status" : "OK",
   "title" : "GetBatteryLevels"
}

Note: a Battery level of 255 indicates either a non battery powered device, or a battery powered device which has not yet send a battery measurement to OpenZWave yet.

Changing a zwave device parameter

  /json.htm?type=command&param=applyzwavenodeconfig&idx=node_idx&valuelist=plist

node_idx = the value found by searching through the output of openzwavenodes for the node in question (see above)
plist = the (partially) URI encoded and BASE64 encoded parameter list

The plist entries start with an unencoded decimal item number preceded by and followed by an underscore (e.g. _7_), followed by the correctly-encoded string. You can check out the encodings at the following links: base64decode and at urlencode. In Base64, 'Enable' is written as 'RW5hYmxl', so it looks odd but it's easy once you grasp it.

For example, if you are configuring a NEO Coolcam Siren through JSON,

  /json.htm?type=command&param=applyzwavenodeconfig&idx=10&valuelist=7_QWxhcm0gbXVzaWM%3D

would change parameter 7 (Configure Default Siren On Mode) to 'Alarm music', while

  /json.htm?type=command&param=applyzwavenodeconfig&idx=10&valuelist=7_RG9vciBiZWxsIG11c2lj%3D

would change it to 'Door bell music' (because 'RG9vciBiZWxsIG11c2lj' is the result of Base64 encoding 'Door bell music'). Note: Any '%3D' and such in the plist are the result of URI encoding an '=' or other non-alphanumeric character.

The easiest way to learn about this is to change a zwave device parameter manually using your browser while you have developer tools enabled (hit 'ctrl-shift-i' in Chrome). Look under the network tab at the JSON sent back by the browser to Domoticz when you click on 'Apply Configuration for This Device'.

  /json.htm?type=command&param=applyzwavenodeconfig&idx=10&valuelist=3_MjU1_1_SGlnaA%3D%3D_
2_MSBtaW51dGU%3D_4_TG93_5_MTA%3D_6_MQ%3D%3D_7_QWxhcm0gbXVzaWM%3D_8_RW5hYmxl_9_RGlzYWJsZQ%3D%3D_

The browser will actually send the full parameter list to Domoticz, including the unchanged values of any parameters you didn't alter. If you modify one of them, however, you'll see that edit reflected in the Base64-encoded JSON string.

Language-specific JSON examples

The following tiny code snippets demonstrate the syntax for using JSON with Domoticz from some popular programming languages.

Bash

#!/bin/bash
curl -s 'http://192.168.178.12:8080/json.htm?type=devices&rid=104' | jq .result[0].Temp | sed 's/\"//g' | awk '{ print $1 }'

 $parsed_json = json_decode($json_string, true);
 $test_link = "/home/pi/output.txt";
 $test_data = fopen ($test_link, "w+");
 fwrite ($test_data, print_R($parsed_json, TRUE));
 fclose ($test_data);
 ?>
