a little help

[EMCSizl]

Hi guys, looking for some guidance here... I am attempting to use the plug-in to power a hardware hack.

simple particle function/API called "power" to control the pins on my particle.
json file is as follows and error at the bottom.

Looks like it cannot interpret the "name" string, which I am assuming is the devices name but???
Also I cannot figure out who the args are supposed to work. If I want to feed it a simple strong of on or off.. how do I go about that?

Thanks

"type": "lightbulb",
"device_id": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
"function_name": "power",
"args": "on={STATE}"

type: 'lightbulb',

device_id: 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',

function_name: 'power',

args: 'on={STATE}' }

@EMCSizl can you post the whole conifg.json file? it looks like you may be missing some keys in your json. also, does the particle function work properly when calling from https://console.particle.io/events?
