In the IDE, I can (among other things) check the status of my devices (eg, to see if a light switch is On or Off).
Is it possible to “control” (ie, change the state of) a device? I dont see a way to turn the device On or Off. I can do that from the SmartThings App, or other connected apps (Alexa, etc). But it doesnt appear that I can do that from the IDE itself (unless I’m just not seeing this functionality).
Can someone confirm whether this is possible?

there was a call for users to signup for a chance to test a web portal but that project has yet to start…
SmartThings is actively looking for users to alpha test and provide feedback for a new web portal that allows users to interact with SmartThings via a web browser.
Who should apply?
We are seeking a diverse group of users who are interested in actively using and providing feedback on an exciting new feature.
How do I apply?
If you are interested, please take a few minutes to complete this survey:
Alpha Test Application Form
What if I am selected?
If selected, you will be interacting with software that is incomplete. We work hard to avoid major issues, but it’s possible that things may break at any time. As a participant with early access, we’ll rely on you to help us identify issues so that we can improve our product. We appreciate your help, participation, and understanding as we work…
That project did actually start, and it’s now closed. I believe they’re waiting to move to the next stage.
