Maybe good if you check the example in the first post of the Loops app topic: [[APP][Pro] Loops](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-loops/85754).

In order for it to work:

- You need to initiate the loop. That part you have done in your second screenshot.
- Then you need to create separate flows for what needs to happen when the loop starts and iterates (based on the WHEN Loop X started/iterates/finishes flowcards). As part of those flows you use the flowcard from your first screenshot that randomly sets the hue of the light.
