Extract presentations for production capabilities

Developer Programs Writing Edge Drivers
1

I am getting on with my edge driver and i am using the proposed mediaInputSource capability and i have started to make my own custom capability based on this proposed cap. Now the custom cap is done but i am struggling with the presentation side. so my question is this.

Is it possible to extract the capability presentation json from a production cap? I cant find a way to do it

All I need to do is to rename the sources but the prod cap prevents that hence the custom approach.
I also saw somewhere that you dont need the custom presentation anymore adn the edge driver will build the presentation automatically? im getting confused now… need Tea…

The easiest way is to use the CLI …

Using your own choice of API tool the URL is:

https://api.smartthings.com/capabilities/mediaInputSource/1/presentation

The 1 is the version number of the capability.

You can also use Todd’s API Browser+ if that is more your thing.
