# Shelly QuickApps for Z-Box

Hello,

I’ve been spending some time building out a set of QuickApps to integrate Shelly Wi-Fi devices with the Z-Box, and I’ve just published them publicly on GitHub.

This was borne out of my own needs, so I could only test the devices I had on hand. Also it is a beta release at the moment and definitely has room for improvement. But it is a start!

## What’s included

Five QuickApps each targeted at a specific Shelly device type:

- **Shelly Gen3/Gen4 Relays & Plugs** — on/off control with optional power meter and illuminance child devices
- **Shelly EM Gen1** — dual-channel energy monitoring
- **Shelly EM Gen3** — dual-channel energy monitoring
- **Shelly PM Mini Gen3** — single-channel power monitoring
- **Shelly i4 / i4 DC** — 4-input button device, full single/double/triple/long press support

(Note that these may work with other devices than those listed… so experimentation is key)

Since this is all IP based, all communication is **fully local**. It is not using Shelly’s cloud or any third-party services. Just your Z-Box talking directly to your Shelly devices over your local network.

So, it requires your device to be in IP (wifi or ethernet if a pro device) mode. Zigbee or Matter mode won’t function with these Quickapps. (And if you have a z-wave Shelly, obviously you don’t need this at all 🙂 )

## Two ways to install

**Simple:** Download the `.fqa` file from the Releases page and upload it straight to your Z-Box — no coding required.

**Advanced:** Grab the Lua source from the repo if you want to dig in, customise, or follow along with updates.

## GitHub repo

👉 [GitHub - savethepanel/zbox-shelly-quickapp: Shelly Wi-Fi device integration for Zooz Z-Box via Lua QuickApps. · GitHub](https://github.com/SaveThePanel/zbox-shelly-quickapp)

The README covers installation, configuration variables, and device-specific setup details. If you run into issues or have feature requests, GitHub Issues is the best place to track them — or just reply here.

I’ll be posting a YouTube video shortly with a walkthrough and setup guide — I’ll drop the link in a reply once it’s live.

Hopefully this is useful! Enjoy.

Thank you. Truth be told - I documented the one script and had Claude go through them all for code review, cleanup and standardizing the documentation / comments. Claude isn’t perfect, but it is my new employee of the month. 😂

Great work, thanks so much for sharing! Do you mind if we create a support article for the Z-Box portal based on your documentation and contribution so users can easily find it? 😊 I’m trying to think of the best place to start a library for the Z-Box specific quick apps since in another thread you mentioned the Nice/Fibaro marketplace wasn’t too intuitive. Maybe we could create a dedicated section for them in the Z-Box Support Portal?

That’s awesome, thanks so much for creating this guide too! We will incorporate it in the documentation, this is super helpful 🙂

Yet another very well done video, Darren! 😎

Just watched it from end to end and it also gave me some idea of how the Shelly devices work, as I don’t have any at this point.
