Sometimes you have to close your door even if you're just taking out the trash or going down to the basement, because you have pets or small children at home, who might otherwise escape :D
But in this scenario the Nuki Auto Unlock function won't activate, because you are not leaving your geofencing area. Therefore you have to open the door manually when you return.
So you either take the keys with you and use them like someone from the Middle Ages or you take out your smartphone and open the door with the Nuki app.
To add more convenience to this scenario, I placed an NFC sticker behind the light switch next to my door. This will trigger an automation, which will send an HTTP request to the Nuki Bridge to open the door :)
On my Android phone I use Tasker, but this will also work on iOS with the integrated Shortcuts app.

Setup Info
----------------
First you need to enable the HTTP Api on your Nuki Bridge via the Nuki App and there you will see the IP-Address and API Token.
Then you need to find out the nukiId of your smart lock. So just modify and open this address in your browser:

Then you will see all the devices connected to your Nuki Bridge and their corresponding nukiId.
Now you have all the parts to modify and call this HTTP Request to open your door:

Attention
----------------
Do not write the unlock url onto the nfc tag itself! This is not secure, because with this setup anyone can open your lock by just scanning the nfc tag. Therefore the unlock url should always be stored on your smartphone, so only you have access to it.
For a safe setup, take a look into Tasker or similar apps. Tasker just scans the tag ID and that's all it needs to know from the tag. So if it recognized the tag with id "123" it can send out the http request with the unlock url, which is stored inside tasker on your phone. The nfc tag itself can stay completely empty with no sensitive information at all.
