Control Samsung Windfree Air Conditioner with REST API

That depends on the device type and its handler (type and/or configuration). For example:

  • Not all devices can be accessed through a LAN connection and can be only controlled by making requests to their cloud
  • Edge drivers run locally by default but this kind of devices must still be using DTH and the manufacturer needs to define that explicitly.
  • This kind of device use OCF which works differently (check more details here)

I suggest you contact the Customer Support team of Samsung to let them know you’re interested in local integration for this device, they might have more info about that.
