When I want to add any Hue device to my Homey bridge, I get the next message: Unauthorized user.

You can’t add Hue to Homey bridge. You add it to Homey (cloud/premium) by a cloud-to-cloud connection.  
Homey bridge is just a piece of hardware you can add to Homey (cloud/premium) as accessory.

‘Unauthorized user’ most probably means your user or password don’t match.

(Maybe you should enable cloud acccess on the Hue system (no Hue here to check for you)? If there even is such an option.)
