Lights are an essential part of every smart home, and a room often has multiple lights.
To ensure a seamless user experience, we recommend setting up a group on Home Assistant to control all the lights in a room. This can be done by setting up the Home Assistant group as a Room Accessory. If you’re using Philips Hue, Home Assistant will automatically expose the Hue room/zone, which you can use as the Room accessory for the room.
Having a group as the Room accessory is crucial for quick and easy control. You can simply turn off all the lights in the room with a single touch of a button.
However, there may be lights in a room that you want to control individually. In such cases, you can use Pins to achieve this. Simply place the Pin where the lights are located in the room.
Here are some examples of how Pins can be used for lighting:
