Not an issue just some help needed! about terrariumpi

What are the options from the UPS side?

The best thing to do is shutdown the Pi. That would also shutdown TerrariumPI software. So if there is an 'official' way to shutdown a server, that would be the best.

But, it is also possible to use the TerrariumPI API. If you are able to 'post' to an url, you can use:
http://[username]:[password]@[terrariumpi_ip]/api/action/shutdown
If needs to be a post action else it will no work. And this will shutdown the Pi completely.
There is no need to actual posting data.

But, if you can tell a bit more about how you use the UPS on other servers, maybe you can use that also for the Pi

Hi, Thank you so much you have actually completely answered my question! What I couldn’t figure out was what I needed to ‘post’ but now I see. It will be quite easy as Home Assistant which I use to monitor my UPSs has a REST/POST command so all I need to do is initiate a shutdown of TerrariumPi using the API when the UPS has been online for a few minutes as the UPS will be monitored by Home Assistant using NUT then shut the UPS down afterwards so it all comes back on when the main supply is restored.

Thank you and as always much appreciated!
