Got it. Appreciate the info. I'll stick to using Smartthings as the

All the more reason to go for option #3
But okay, crash course: https uses encryption to transfer information.
While on an open server this encryption is
LMS does not support https, end of story.
So you will need some sort of go between that does support https, and
then relays http to LMS.

Sharptools is a cloud service.
Right, I see. So this is effectively not home automation but a nice
frontend on a public server that instructs your browser to fetch the
info from your IoT devices as inline objects. As I see it you have three

That approach still entails the overhead of having to open ports and
getting/maintaining a domain name for your house.
I'd argue that using (free) ngrok is much simpler - no need for port
forwarding, a valid ssl
Like the other responders I'm unsure why you would need https if you are
accessing Player through a local network. There is no added value over
unencrypted http for such an environment and it only complicates setup
and maintenance, in particular when you resort to using a trusted
certificate
What I need is an https connection. How can I accomplish that?
Does your automation system not allow http? I don't think pCP has
support for https to access its settings pages. You could use something
like https://nginxproxymanager.com. But the question really is whether
you really need

openssl is installed by default.
Openssl creates an encrypted link between two machines. https is just
a generic term.
