Good evening,
I recently updated the wiz app to the new V2 app. I found that you can create your own scenes, called creations. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get those creations that I made into Hubitat so I can use them.
Does anyone have any experience with this?
I would expect that will be very difficult if not impossible. The wiz scenes before were related to a CT value over 6000(or 6500, it has been a while since the drivers were first published). Basically the bulb could provide color temps between 2500 and 6k and then when a number was passed above that it translated it to a predefined scene.
I would expect a custom scene to function differently from that.
What devices are you talking about. I have been using the V2 version for a while and i don't see a way to create a creation with my wiz bulbs. It does look like the product line has expanded a fair bit though so maybe this is delving into a area that the current options were never ment to handle.
I am using a wiz led strip (see screenshot), I’m using the Hubitat wiz integration and all of premade wiz scenes are there, I don’t see anywhere to pull the creation I made, which is just alternating between three colors. The if you open the wiz v2 app, go to the library tab, you’ll see “light mode creation”. It shows you the option to create or view your creations (see screenshots). Not all of my lights are compatible with the create option. My light strips are and two of my bulbs are, the other bulbs say not compatible.
Yea. I dont see that with the bulbs i have. It would be interesting to know if that works without internet access. My guess is that the function is cloud dependent.
Can you block cloud access for your phone and the strip and see if it still works for custom scenes. If it does then try turning off bluetooth to ensure you are using your local LAN.
If it continues to work someone from hubitat may need to review the API Docs to see if they have been expanded for this function.
It would probably be a good idea to review it simply because of how the WIZ ecosystem has grown.
@gopher.ny may be a good idea to look into this. Possibly start to think about explaining what the Wiz integration limitations are with all of the Wiz products in the wild, if not already done.
I'll create some firewall rules when I get home to see if it works on the LAN, if I can correctly eliminate the WAN. There is what seems like a convoluted way to pull DIY's in from Govee so I didn't know if Wiz could do the same. I know with the Wiz V1 app, there wasn't a creation option so it's new.
There was a fair bit of reverse engineering that went into that. A Govee ambassador actualy lead me down the path to find the solution that was implemented to extract the scenrs from Govee.
Basically he found the basic AWS calls and i then worked with him to find the proper way to acess it. While doing that and reviewing the returned data i found were the scene command was being provided. The rest is history with extracting that info.
The point to all that is yes it is possible, but will take significant effort.
Do you have unifi gear. If so you coud do a packet capture while sending the command from your phone and then review the packet capture to see what is sent.
