Hubconnect

[JakeA]

I have setup hubconnect. I installed hubconnect 2.0 rc2.. on main hubitat i installed the hubconnect server, server instance, remote, and the driver. On smartthings i installed remote client, and the driver then went into settings and selected devices to share. Returned to main hubitat and added the remote hubs with smartthings and homebridge. once done i went into the devices and only new devices it shows is a smartthings hub as a device and homebridge as a device. I know im missing something simple here but cant figure it out.

HubConnect DTHs on SmartThings for the devices you want to share from there?

[JakeA]

not to sound like a idiot but whats DTH's?

[thebearmay]

Old school SmartThings - Device Type Handler aka Device Handler (DH) aka device driver

[JakeA]

ok that makes since. Yes i installed the smartthings device handler driver.

There can / should be multiples, i.e. I have the

shackrat : HubConnect Arlo Camera
shackrat : HubConnect Remote Hub for SmartThings

drivers loaded in addition to the

shackrat : HubConnect Remote Client

SmartApp

Im trying to get my lifx lights from smartthings to be seen by hubitat. not seeing driver for them. ill have to try something different

[thebearmay]

May be able to use an RGB or RGBW HC Driver

[JakeA]

will try that..Thanks

Just in case anyone wanted to know i found the fix and it was simple i didnt even think of it. Use Hubitat package manager and searched Lifx. install it and searched network for lights and now it all works. almost ready to shut down Smartthings for good and throw it in my box of old tech....

On a related note, have you tried just connecting your LIFX to Hubitat directly instead? There's no out-of-box support, but there is a community integration. That will undoubtedly work better than going through ST's cloud to control your lights every time and give you the speed and reliability benefit of Hubitat's local processing:

LIFX Local Control

See this thread: Lifx Local Control? It's possible! Notes here: https://lan.developer.lifx.com/ Thoughts on getting this into Hubitat? Edit: See rob's git here: *** It's necessary to give your LIFX bulbs a static IP address for this to work.

Also, while it's too late now, I would not post about the same problem in three different threads. Easier for everyone. The solution you found was already mentioned in both of these:

HubConnect

OK so i connected HubConnect to my Hubitat and Smartthings and also my Homebridge. I went into smartthings and told it what devices to share. I went back into Hubitat and i dont see any devices even though it says everything is online. What am I missing..?????

Switching to hubitat from smartthings. No lifx?

In the process of switching to Hubitat i found i cant connect my lifx lights. I switched for the hubitat safety monitor. is there a way to connect lifx to hubitat to control wifi lights. I still have smartthings to control these lights but the hub connect options dont let hubitat control smartthings controlled devices.

Glad you got something figured out in any case!
