Hi All,

Quite new to Homey as I always had a SmartThings. Recently switched over and trying to setup my “SmartThings” automations. What I can’t seem to find out is how to pickup the color of a hue light. I want to revert back to the color it had prior to i.e. making the light green.

Any help is appreciated.

The zone memory [app](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-zone-memory-save-and-restore-device-configurations/24962) will probably work for your case
