> **NOTE:** I am not a developer and did not write this code.This application was developed entirely through AI-assisted development (Vibe coded), with Claude Sonnet 4.5 serving as the primary developer. I provided Claude.ai with the scope and requirements, testing and feedback. The results it has delivered are quite good from a functional point of view.
I am highly experienced with smart home platforms and devices, but not with coding. Additionally, I’m fairly new to Homey. I tested this app to the best of my abilities and looked at the generated output, but there could be bugs or patches that wouldn’t make sense to someone who has the skills to do better.
It is not possible for me personally to help with any bugs or feature enhancements without continuing to rely on an LLM. Review from experienced developers and pull requests are welcome, and would be greatly appreciated as a service to the community.

# Quick Start Guide - Hubitat Elevation app
> This guide will walk you through setting up the Hubitat Elevation integration for Homey
## Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:
1. **Hubitat Elevation Hub** - Running on your local network
2. **Homey** - Running firmware version 12.2.0 or higher
3. **Network Access** - Both devices on the same local network (or accessible via VPN/routing)
4. **Web Browser** - To access both Hubitat and Homey interfaces
## Part 1: Configure Hubitat Maker API
### Step 1: Access Hubitat Interface
1. Open a web browser

- **App ID** : `123` (the number after `/api/`)
- **Access Token** : `xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx` (after `access_token=`)
> Realtime updates are optional, but recommended. To enable realtime updates, you must also configure the Maker API field **“URL to send device events to by POST”** on your Hubitat Elevation hub.
>
> See **Part 4: Configure Real-time Updates** below for webhook setup instructions.
### Step 5: Test the API (Optional but Recommended)
1. Copy the entire URL from the Maker API page

- For dimmers: Adjust brightness
- For sensors: Check if the current state is correct
4. Verify the physical device responds correctly
## Part 4: Optional - Configure Webhooks for Real-time Updates
By default, Homey polls your Hubitat devices every 30 seconds. For instant updates, you can configure webhooks.
### Step 12: Get Webhook URL (Advanced)

## Troubleshooting
### Issue: “Failed to get devices from Hubitat”
**Possible Causes and Solutions:**
1. **Incorrect IP Address**
2. **Wrong App ID or Access Token**
3. **Network Issues**
4. **Maker API Not Configured**
### Issue: Devices Not Listed During Pairing
**Solutions:**
- Make sure devices are selected in Maker API settings
- Verify device type matches the driver you’re trying to add
- Check that devices have the necessary capabilities
- Try refreshing the pairing page
### Issue: Device Not Responding to Commands
**Solutions:**
- Verify device works in Hubitat interface
- Check app logs in Homey developer tools
- Remove and re-add the device
- Ensure Maker API still has the device selected
### Issue: Device State Not Updating
**Solutions:**
- Wait 30 seconds (default polling interval)
- Configure webhooks for instant updates
- Check network connectivity
- Restart Homey app
### Issue: Connection Test Fails
**Solutions:**
1. Verify all three settings are correct
2. Test the API URL manually in browser:
```auto
http://[IP]/apps/api/[APP_ID]/devices/all?access_token=[TOKEN]
```
3. Check Hubitat hub is online and accessible
4. Ensure no VPN or network segmentation is blocking access
## Advanced Configuration
### Finding Your Hubitat IP Address
**Method 1: From Hubitat Interface**
- Look at your browser’s address bar when connected to Hubitat
**Method 2: From Router**
- Log into your router
- Look for “Hubitat Elevation” in connected devices list
**Method 3: Using Network Scanner**
- Use a network scanning tool (e.g., Fing, Advanced IP Scanner)
- Look for device named “Hubitat” or manufacturer “Hubitat”
### Recommended Network Setup
For best performance:
- Use static IP or DHCP reservation for Hubitat hub
- Ensure both Homey and Hubitat are on same VLAN
- Configure Quality of Service (QoS) for reliable communication
- Use wired Ethernet for Hubitat when possible
### Adding Multiple Hubs
Currently, the app supports one Hubitat hub. To use multiple hubs:
1. Install separate instances of the app (if supported)
2. Or use Hub Mesh in Hubitat to share devices between hubs
## Getting Help
If you continue to experience issues:
1. **Check Logs**
2. **Community Support**
3. **Documentation**
## Next Steps
Once you have devices added:
1. **Create Flows**
2. **Set Up Scenes**
3. **Voice Control**
4. **Automation**
## Best Practices
1. **Device Naming**
2. **Organization**
3. **Testing**
4. **Maintenance**
## Part 4: Configure Real-time Updates (Webhooks recommended)
By default, the app polls devices every 30 seconds. For instant updates, configure webhooks:
### Enable Real-time Updates
1. Open Hubitat Maker API settings
2. Find **“URL to send device events to by POST”**
3. Review the section **Finding Homey webhook URL** below for detail on how to find the exact webhook URL to enter in the next step.
4. Enter: `http://[HOMEY-IP]:80/api/app/com.hubitat.elevation/webhook`
- Replace `[HOMEY-IP]` with your Homey’s local IP
- Example: `http://192.168.1.50:80/api/app/com.hubitat.elevation/webhook/hubitat`
5. Select **Update**
**Finding Homey webhook URL:**
1. Open the Homey web interface (`http://homey.local` or your Homey IP)
2. Go to **Settings** → **Apps**
3. Find **Hubitat Elevation** and select it
4. Tap **Configure**
5. Look for **Your exact webhook URL** and copy the complete URL shown
**Benefits:**
- ✅ Instant updates (\< 1 second)
- ✅ Reduced network traffic
- ✅ Better battery sensor reporting
- ⚠ Requires Homey and Hubitat on same network
**Without webhooks:**
- Updates every 30 seconds via polling
- Still fully functional

A bug was introduced after version **v1.5.2** when power/energy monitoring was added. Claude AI used a Python regex script to inject the code into all relevant drivers, but that **corrupted the `handleAttributeUpdate` method** in `color-light/device.js`, `fan/device.js`, and `thermostat/device.js`, mangling them into broken JavaScript.
Unfortunately this was not found until a user reported that color lights were generating an error. To resolve this issue, please update to version 1.7.2 once it becomes available. I sincerely appologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
