Assign a location to a Smart App?

The Community Installer SmartApp was written by the same developer that wrote the NST Manager SmartApp:

The steps for creating a version of the existing code for any SmartApp:

  1. Login to https://account.smartthings.com (not graph.api… or any other url). This is the most likely reason you are not seeing it under Marketplace in the Mobile App.

  2. If you have GitHub enabled then you do not need to do a Cut/Paste of any code. You can simply Update from Repo which can create and publish the code automatically for you. You will need to look those instructions on creating a GitHub account.

  3. To manually create and publish in the IDE, you will goto SmartApps. Create New, From Code. Go copy the code from GitHub (Raw) and then paste into the New SmartApp.

  4. Create

  5. Then Publish For Me

  6. Then perform the OAauth Enable for the SmartApp.

Perform any remaining steps in thsoe instructions.

  1. Then open the SmartThings Classic Mobile App.

  2. Goto Marketplace tab

  3. Select SmartApps

  4. Scroll to bottom and select My Apps.

The Community Installer should be listed there for you to Install the Application.

After you have successfully installed the Community Installer, the idea behind this is that there are several SmartApps available that can be installed directly using this SmartApp without having to perform steps 1 thru 7.

However with that being said,others have been reporting issues with the SmartApp in the official page where you should be posting any issues or questions, not this thread. See below.

Also, my recommendation to someone being new and not understanding all of the background knowledge yet with the SmartThings platform is to follow the instructions for a SmartApp like NST Manager and not doing that with this community installer which is just a shortcut that won’t allow you to understand where all the pieces go or how it is built and installed. Sure it takes a lot longer to create all the DTHs and SmartApp code (pretty simple if you setup GitHub in your IDE though).

Anyway, hope this helps you out a bit :slight_smile:
