It took me a while myself to figure out how to use this but if you use the Joyfullhouses integration you can set all of the proper options. If you follow this post: Aircoookie WLED integration to HE - #7 by blink
It explains how to use the "Run Custom Action" action and use "SetEffect" to send 4 different parameters. Use the number parameter and enter them one at a time in this order: effect id, speed, intensity, palette. The final command should look something like the screenshot in the link I posted. Example: setEffect(75, 124, 255, 36)
