[Matter] IKEA DIRIGERA hub en IKEA Home smart - Central topic

To your information, IKEA just announced that they have enabled Matter Bridge support on the Dirigera hub! This is a beta version, and you have to enable it in “The Workshop”. Read more here: Does the DIRIGERA hub supporting Matter? - IKEA United kingdom

PS! You need to update the IKEA app on your phone before you get access to this setting.

Yes, I could see it as well!

But when I tried the barcode to the left on the back side, to include it as a matter device in Homey, it didn’t recognize the code. So what code should we type in? I assume the homekit code will not work either?

Found it under “Integrations” after adding that box in"workshop". But it did not integrate with Homey matter include, had to use the IOS add and it says “not certified” or something so “add anyways”.
Now I have all the lights from Dirigera in homey :+1:. They will eventually support blinds and sensors later on, I suppose. But this is a start.




Tip: All devices will be added where you start the include. So it popped up many lights at my home folder=

Hi, this worked (matter bridge) only for lights not for buttons or roller shutter, or motion sensor, any solution?

How did you do? Dont work for me

go to ikea app, the person icon, house, integration, matter bridge, create matter bridge, copy the number. Then go immediatly to homey app, i did from the phone because otherwise i couldn’t see the “matter” icon, go to “plus” icon, new device, under “technologies” list, select matter, connect throug homey pro, paste the number… I’ve done it more then one time, I think because my dirigera hub is not near the homey pro, but it worked, as i told, ONLY for lights

Doing the exact same, gets the error Unable to connect.
Have rebooted, last FW, same LAN, no firewall, 20 cm apart.
:rage:

Matter did not work for me… but I managed the integration via Homekit.
The Dirigera has been integrated first, and the Ikea blinds are now visible in Homey.
I created some basic flows, and it seems working correctly :slight_smile:

If you read the article here and look in the app, it currently only supports lights:

I had to use the iOS include to make it work. Don’t know how Android does this? But I assume it could be similar? You have to enable beta in Dirigera and copy the code from integrations → Matter.

  1. New device in Homey
  2. Matter
  3. Select connect via ios (/Android)

Sorry for Norwegian screenshot

With the app < groep > App voor Homey | Homey it does.

Zigbee grouping really is very different (it works on a hardware level) and performs much better.

it didn’t work either, I found out that you have to have 1 lamp in the Dirigera, not the Dirigera, but the lamp is then recorded by Homey

After the adding of the Matter hub, you dont have any posibilty to remove the connection again!
I found that the dirigera and the Homey Pro only sync at the first Matter Connection then it just is totaly passive.

Hi
This may / probably is the wrong post for this but its the closest and most recent ive found relating to Ikea products.
Ive added my hub using matter, all my motion sensors came over fine. My Symphonix remotes however didnt work so well.
The round volume ones - they just dont appear. The 5 button one shows up in Home but has no option to control or do anything just battery status. In Smartthings, full button control and configuration has come over with Matter.
I tried the community apps that support these products and they would not pair. It kept saying unable to connect.

Is this normal? Why no Matter support for Ikea controllers @Homey?
Brilliant for sonos control

Thanks

Correct, created and moved your post…

Not much help, but to say that I´ve added one of these remotes via Matter without problems, and all buttons work as they should…

Hmmmm. Ok, i wonder why its only giving me batter and nothing else then!
Did you add this to the ikea hub and it came Over into the Homey and it added automatically or did you manage to pair the remote direct?
Ill give it another go

This is all i get


I added it to the Ikea hub, and it automatically came over to Homey. I don’t see anything more than you do from the screenshots you posted, but it has flow cards…

Ahh ok. So in SmartThings the controller comes over with view and use of all its buttons. I dont see that here and In my flows all I see is battery status
