roberthleeii Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 Does anyone know how to get a second Hue bridge setup on the NS? I use two bridges and am trying to set up a second bridge on my NS. I looked at the v2 documentation but did not see anything about adding a second bridge.

There's a post on the Node server sub-forum where someone was able to use 2 bridges. It's titled similar to yours
roberthleeii Posted May 18, 2022 Author Posted May 18, 2022 this is from the post mentioned by @lilyoyo1.

However, the node server's author added a statement to "configuration help" which may have resolved my issue. A configuration option is to add a custom parameter key and value: bridges - this should be set to the list of Hue bridges if you have multiple you would like to be able to control, for example: ["10.0.1.1","10.0.2.1"] I invoked this option, restarted the node server, and two additional nodes were added! I'll play around with this setup, and see if it does what I am aiming. Again, thanks to all. setting this seems to have done the trick. It did cause a few issues with hue devices i had previously set up. anything with a name change was recreated and the original one in the ISY was left but the node did not work.
