Philips Hue support is integrated into Home Assistant as a Hub that can drive the light platform. The preferred way to setup the Philips Hue platform is by enabling the [discovery component](/components/discovery/).

Once Home Assistant is restarted, locate and click on `configurator.philips_hue` to bring up the initiation dialog.

A typical Hue hub might have hundreds of scenes stored in them, many that you've never used, almost all very poorly named.
