HUE Scenes

[csteenwyk]

Are Hue scenes supported? I am trying to use "Set Hue Scene" on a group, and it keeps giving me "does not seem to have scene index X" in the log

@csteenwyk do you have scenes setup in Hue? The way I'm seeing this is in a program it's calling on a "Built-in scene ##" (Built in 00-10 and Custom scene 11-30). 

I just tried a test program and it seemed to work. I don't know a way to tell what it is refencing as a scene, but the log did appear to tell it to run the "Nighttime scene

My program was very simple and I just hit "run then" so didn't have an if or else. Note: The "Bedroom" is a group in Hue so it did turn several lights on when I ran "Then".

If
   - No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition')
 
Then
        Set '~NodeServers / ~Hue / Bedroom' Set Hue Scene Built-in scene 00
 
Else
   - No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

In the hue app I guess the Automations might be scenes, but I don't have any of them called "nighttime". And there aren't any nodes for scenes. 

Have you tried setting a group or maybe making a scene in IoX and adjusting it that way rather than through the plugin? Since this plugin isn't being updated and wasn't using an official API it's possible it's a little outdated and doesn't work exactly correct.
