Any way to get definitive state data from devices?

[Carl Youngblood]

Thanks for building this great project. I've noticed that if I control any of my somfy blinds with the remote, the API no longer reflects accurate information about whether they're open or closed. Any idea about how I can make sure that the reported state is accurate without having to force some kind of movement?

@cayblood I think this is a limitation of the API if I recall correctly. More specifically from what I remember this is a limitation of the somfy system. The mylink doesn't have two-way communication with the shade so if you command the shade from a remote there's no feedback to the mylink that this happened.

I've switched over to home assistant myself so no longer keep track of this project. The home assistant integration for mylink has the same limitation.
