I am automating some stuff with Telegram bots, and I wonder if I can get the hubs' ips and names from https://findmyhub.hubitat.com/ programmatically. Just issuing a GET request doesn't work, I get We're sorry but portal.hubitat.com doesn't work properly without JavaScript enabled. Please enable it to continue.
It's kinda a chicken and an egg problem, since I need to know an IP of the hub to access it's Maker API. But what can work is assuming hubitat.local is the domain name for the hub with Maker API and then expecting the HID to be meshed to that hub. Maybe...

We can always try hubitat.local; chances are it will work.
You dont have a reserved IP set for the hubs such that you always know the IP of the hubs?
If you want to go the hostname route, In the hub settings you can change the mDNS name so that each hub is unique. Or you can also set a static hostname on the router (if it supports that).

I do have a reserved IP. I am writing a TG bot and would prefer not to hardcode IPs.
In any way, accessing Maker API through hubitat.local and parsing Hub Information Drivers to find the rest of the hubs worked.
