The `lifx_cloud` scene platform allows you to activate the scenes that LIFX smartphone apps store in the LIFX cloud.
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Example configuration.yaml entry
|
|
scene:
|
|
- platform: lifx_cloud
|
|
token: YOUR_LIFX_TOKEN
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can then activate each scene with its name from the smartphone app:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
- service: scene.turn_on
|
|
entity_id: scene.goodnight
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% configuration %}
|
|
token:
|
|
description: The API token for your LIFX Cloud account.
|
|
required: true
|
|
type: string
|
|
timeout:
|
|
description: Network timeout in seconds.
|
|
required: false
|
|
default: 10
|
|
type: integer
|
|
{% endconfiguration %}
|
|
|
|
