Ikea Dirigera thru HomeKit missing motion/door sensors?

Got a Homey and had an idea of using it as a cool automation umbrella over my Ikea Dirigera gateway. Started in the general forum and was asked to ask the question here…

Run v1.3.15 wish rocks! and enabled me to use the setup below:

Environment: Homey 2016 → Ikea Dirigera → Zigbee things

All Ikea Tradfri lamps + control outlets + light drivers and Sonoff humidity/temp sensors appeared and works as expected! Amazed how easy it was 😃

//Challenge

Missing all my Vallhorn + Tradfri motion and Parasoll door/window sensors?

Odd is that I still can see/add the “Battery” of these devices, and the tiles show the correct manufacturer, type, name…

//Question

Is there a setting I have missed that’s needed to see the full features of the missing sensors where I now only see the battery information?

This is my second post in total in this forum so let’s see if I mess up 😉

No, it should be self-defining

Same for me, no motion alarms, and my flows have “Card unavailable” cards. I’m on Homey version 12.2.0 and HC version 1.3.15. I can see in the app log that it still receives the alarm\_motion event. I also see the HC update which removes the “alarm\_motion as custom capability”, should I upgrade to that?

12.2.0 has a change on how they deal with system capabilities vs custom capabilities with the same id.

Let me look into it

Upgrading to 1.3.17 (test) brought back the motion detection, and even replaced the “Card unavailable” cards in the flows with their respective cards! Thanks! 🙏

</div>

the app is approved for 12.2.0 but cannot push it to live as the pro 19 is not yet at 12.2.0.

So if you have the issue and are at 12.2.0, use the test version

Hi

It worked when upgrading to the test-version 1.3.17. Thanks.  
But after that, when adding new devices to Homekit, I need to restart the app, in order to make the FP2 to bind to Homey Pro after tapping in the device Number in the process
