Can't loggin with user which only has rights for home automation about fritzconnection

[kbr]

I've tried it with a user just having homautomation-rights and it works fine. Any user can create a FritzConnection instance (or FritzHomeAutomation in this case), but the allowed operations are restricted to the user-rights. What you need to know is the ain of the switch, i.e. you can get all ains from the command line (use the latest fritzconnection version 1.13.2):

$ fritzhomeauto -i 192.168.178.1 

Then the following script will do the job:

from fritzconnection.lib.fritzhomeauto import FritzHomeAutomation

user = "test_user"  # user with just homeautomation rights
password = "the cool password for the test_user"
ain = "11657 0240192"  # use the ain of your device here
ip = "192.168.178.1"  # normalwise the default ip

fh = FritzHomeAutomation(address=ip, use_cache=True, user=user, password=password)
fh.set_switch(identifier=ain, on=True)  # or 'on=False'

Thank you very much! It works. I really don't know what I made wrong in my first attempt. I just used from another code example some lines, maybe I messed something up there.

Thanks for the response.
