But this does not show up in my apple home app (other switches from my Homebridge do show up and I'm able to control them).
What am I doing wrong?
And once the lux value shows up, how do I setup a conditional automations? e.g. If lux changes and is > 300 bring down the blinds, if lux drops to < 200 open the blinds). I want to set this up in iOS as my blinds can't be controlled from hubitat.
I have an Aeotec Multi-sensor exposed to Apple Home via Homebridge and the lux reading does show up, so I'm not sure why it doesn't work for the Hue device. In Apple Home, you can long press on the accessory, bring up the details and add the automation from there.
Thanks for the screenshots!! Found it in one of the rooms and setup some automations from the sensor. It doesn't look like the rooms from Hubitat transfer over to the rooms in Apple Home. Does anyone know if there's a way to carry that over?
Good to know. One last question: at daybreak today lux values on the hue sensor went up in Hubitat but Homebridge is still stuck at 0 (15 minutes later). Is there a way to determine Homebridge refresh frequency? Ideally I'd like the updated lux value to be propagated immediately.
In the Hubitat homebridge app I selected this device in "All Other Devices" -> "Sensors".
If you are using MakerAPI to publish to Homebridge, it should be instantaneous. Is there something in the Hue sensor setup in Homebridge that sets a threshold for generating a "change" event? Not sure if you have the same Hue motion sensor that I do (I have the outdoor one but I don't use it for triggering lux events in Apple Home, so it is not shared). Here is my set up for lux for that:
