Configuration

Environment Variables

Create or update ~/.env with the following:

# Omada Controller Configuration
OMADA_CONTROLLER_URL=https://192.168.11.8:8043
OMADA_API_KEY=your-api-key
OMADA_API_SECRET=your-api-secret
OMADA_SITE_ID=your-site-id  # Optional, will use default site if not set
OMADA_VERIFY_SSL=false  # Set to true for production (requires valid SSL cert)

Recommended: Use the proxmox-controller API application (Client Credentials mode) for MCP automation:

  • Client ID: 94327608913c41bb9c32ce8d1d6e87d3
  • Client Secret: 600b924a541a4139a386cb7c63ac47b5

See the Physical Hardware Inventory for complete API credential details.

Getting API Credentials

  1. Access your Omada Controller web interface
  2. Navigate to Settings > Platform Integration > Open API
  3. Click Add New App
  4. Provide an app name and select Client Credentials mode
  5. Save to get your Client ID (API Key) and Client Secret

Troubleshooting

Connection Errors

  • Verify OMADA_CONTROLLER_URL is correct (IP address and port 8043)
  • Check that the Omada Controller is running and accessible
  • If using self-signed certificates, ensure OMADA_VERIFY_SSL=false

Authentication Errors

  • Verify OMADA_API_KEY and OMADA_API_SECRET are correct
  • Check that the API app is enabled in Omada Controller
  • Ensure the API app has the necessary permissions

Device Not Found

  • Verify the deviceId is correct
  • Check that siteId matches the device's site (if provided)
  • Ensure the device is adopted and online
