Ah, that’s the issue.

Did you add it successfully with the Tuya Zigbee app, _ **or** _ did Homey respond with: “device was added as unknown zigbee device”?

If it did, you’d request for support as explained at post 1 of the [Tuya Zigbee app topic](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-tuya-zigbee-app/26439)

So called unknown zigbee devices are connected with the generic Homey zigbee driver; this supports lights, (metering) plugs, switches and certain other on/off devices.

Generic zigbee devices which only _send_ data, like sensors, are **NOT** supported.
