Update:
- The Mobile Alerts REST API only supports some of their sensors - most
of my temp/hum sensors are not supported by the API.
- I think the easiest way to gain sensor data is to parse the
measurements from a website that is provided by Mobile Alerts. There's no
password protection, all you need are the IDs of your weather station
('PhoneID') and the sensors, or even better the unique URLs showing the
last measurements for each sensor. For sorry these are HTML tables only, no
XML format. But still should be no problem to parse the values.
So sniffing is not required, just HTML parsing.
I think then the interceptor is the wrong driver, right?
