How can connect a java application to the BOLT cloud???

@bcapp40 The Bolt APIs are language independent as the APIs use HTTP calls.
You can use a suitable Java library to make the calls. The response is in JSON.
Check out the link for the documentation below,

Hi @bcapp40,

Each programming language has packages to do https request. Java has lot packages for doing the http request Foe example :

  1. OkHttpClient - https://www.vogella.com/tutorials/JavaLibrary-OkHttp/article.html
  2. Apache http client - https://howtodoinjava.com/library/jaxrs-client-httpclient-get-post/

Check the code below for sending the Digital Write command using Ok Http client of java.

OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient();

Request request = new Request.Builder()
  .url("https://cloud.boltiot.com/remote/v2/e89c2a19-2317-4ed4-9a39-711db5f05ae8/digitalWrite?pin=2&state=LOW&deviceName=BOLT7488206")
  .get()
  .addHeader("cache-control", "no-cache")
  .build();

Response response = client.newCall(request).execute();

Do let me know in case you need further assistance.
