Added Hue devices, then removed, now can’t re-add

Devices
1

Hey All, I just received my Homey Pro today and dove in. Started with Hue ‘cause I have a bunch. But they didn’t look right (not enough), so I deleted them from the HP to try again.

But now when I try to re-add my Hue stuff, HP throws the message “no new devices found” and nothing is imported from the Hue hub.

I’m hoping this is just HP recognizing that I already imported them, then removed them, and now ignores them by default.

If that’s the case, is there some attribute that I can reset to make HP see them again? And if not, is there some other work-around I can try?

Thanks for the assist. - Dave

Did you try after rebooting Homey?

No. I’ll give that a try. Thanks! - Dave

Ar you connecting them using the Hue Homey app?

Or connect them using Matter?

Checked the Support pages but couldn’t find the proper way to reboot (even from the “restarting to recovery mode” doc). The docs folks seem to take for granted that a new user will know how to reboot a Homey. Is it as simple as unplugging the device, then plugging it in again? - Dave

Yes, I’m using the app to bring in everything from the Hue hub. -Dave

That would be a yes.
Soft restart is hidden in here:

is isn’t hidden in the Developer tools, that’s just one of the locations for developers.

it is available in Flows, in Settings - General in the Mobile App and same place in the Web-App!

Thank you! I ultimately became impatient and took the power cycle route, but now I know just where to look. This forum and the people in it are definitely Homey’s best “feature!” - Dave
