Somebody already done anything with homematic API?

In theory this library can be rewritten into Lua but it's a lot of work. You should consider looking into other options like ZigBee.

Hunter Douglas Europe only makes two options now days if you want to have motorized shades that have both top down/bottom up control:

1. Motors being able to connect to Homey bridge https://homey.app/nl-nl/homey-bridge/
2. EASE motors being able to connect to homematic bridge https://homematic-ip.com/en/product/smart-home-ccu3-central-control-unit

The problem is i think the homey is 433Mhz and ease motors are 866Mhz controlled. What would be the best option to connect it to KNX by logic machine?

The Homematic IP Rest API is doable but first you need to check if the Python library actually works correctly with these blinds.

Hunter Douglas says it only works with homematic. So if you say this can API can work on Logic Machine this is the best route to start. Customer said it is ok to start with just KNX next to homematic so i have time to find it out if it can work. Also see some items on the web that the CCU can act as MBTCP gateway. This might be a easier way.
