Hi all,

First of all, I am very new to this, but couldn’t find an answer on the forum. I am trying to create a flow where I turn on a group of Hue lights with a certain scene (in my case “Relax”). The only thing is that I can only select the “set a scene” card for the all lamps, not only the room that I want it for.

What am I doing wrong?`

“Set a scene” is for selecting a scene u made in the Hue bridge?  
So make the scene in the bridge and in Homey select that scene?

Yes I have created the scene in the Hue bridge. But it doesn’t show in the homey flow. Only the set a scene for all lamps is selectable, which then also turns on other lights.

And if u just made the scene it’s possible that Homey does not see it yet?

I have multiple scenes with similar names. Example: ‘Energie’ is a scene that is a default Hue scene available in every room you create. How do you distinguish this scene in Homey? Should I rename every scene with a prefix of the room?

Yes, that’s exactly what I did. The scenes I wanted to use in Homey I renamed to include the name of the room. I had quite a few “Evening” scenes before I started renaming them 🙂.

I actually stumbled upon this question while I was searching if it was possible to **activate a scene from Homeyscript**. I find the lack of documentation (and capabilities of Homeyscript) extremely frustrating. For example, is it possible to call Action Cards (or its equivalent) from Homeyscript (and how)? I see for some Apps the api calls are mentioned in the forum, but you’re lucky if you do manage to find these.
