    Good day,
    I want to connect (plug in/solder) a garage door wifi switch (e.g. Tuya).
    I would like to connect to the opening and closing buttons. I have included a picture of the buttons below.
    Is this possible? Please give me your suggestions.

    And the gate controller doesn't have a dedicated input for controlling the gate with a single pulse?
    Please specify what model of this controller you have.

    Well, according to the manual, page 82, you have a dedicated input under which you can connect an external control, a GND and KEY connector.
    Only the relay has to be voltage-free, dedicated to such applications.

    WoW, great.
    As soon as I get home, I'm acting.

    Thanks, I'll return the favour somehow :-)

    Added after 9 [hours] 45 [minutes]: .

    At the top I have an output for a "wall switch", just which one is it? ( 1 or 2 )
    Those inputs at the bottom are the photocell and the battery....

    ... and now if 1 or 2 then they open/close, and the wall switch or this wifi switch of mine must have power given to it (phase and N) ?

    These are the jumpers from the photocell, don't touch that.
    Don't you have a connector on the motherboard like the one shown in the manual?
    The wifi relay must of course be connected to the power supply, but as I wrote earlier it must be a relay designed for such a function, i.e. with a voltage-free contact.
    The best thing to do is to give a photo of the relay you have.

    According to the manual gnd and key are used for the switch, only that the key is empty ( solder in? ).
    In my case behind the picture the first two wires on the right are connected to the photocell, the gk one to Red.

    I don't have a wifi switch yet ( I have a few for switching lights and blinds)

    This means you have a different version of the board.
    You can check if this KEY input works at all by short-circuiting it with a piece of wire to GND, it is possible that there are some elements missing on this KEY line to make it work.
    The relays you have without modification will not be good for controlling this gate.
    If it turns out that the KEY input is not active, this roller shutter controller could be connected to the buttons so that it controls the gate, but you will have to modify the connections inside the wi-fi relay or add external relays.

    There is success! :-) .
    Short circuit GND and KEY closes/opens.
    Ordinary WiFi switch or for roller shutter gates?

    You will need to solder to the KEY, I understand, and connect to the switch.
    Thanks a lot!!!

    The relay must have a voltage-free contact.
    Something like this:

    For gates there are also special relays with a sensor so that the application shows whether the gate is closed
    For example such a one:

    Thanks a lot!
    If you will be in Poznan I invite you :}

    Seriously, a big thank you.

Topic summary

The discussion addresses connecting a Tuya WiFi switch to the VEVOR ZTGD800 garage door opener's control terminals. The ZTGD800 features a dedicated external control input labeled GND and KEY, designed for voltage-free relay contacts. Testing confirmed that shorting the KEY input to GND triggers the door open/close function, indicating the input is active. The WiFi switch relay must have a voltage-free (dry) contact to safely interface with the garage door controller. Standard WiFi relays for lighting may require modification or additional external relays to be compatible. Photocell jumpers and battery terminals should not be altered. Recommended are specialized voltage-free WiFi relays compatible with gate control, some with integrated sensors for gate status feedback. Proper power supply connections (phase and neutral) are necessary for the WiFi relay operation.
