| Event sensor | Works | Hue v2 API needed v3.0.0 and type/subtype fieldsSaved copyHi, My hue switch works with automations but I can't get it to show the state in UI and instead shows "bad_state": This is the event: It is set up with V1 dimmer switch: I have some hue switches in deconz that works perfectly with EventSensor but I can't get this to work.

| Not named | Partly works | HA reads only last button state; controls non-Hue outletsSaved copyThe hue 4-button switch ($20 last I looked) can be read by home assistant. I have some controlling Wemo outlets and other non-hue stuff. It’s not perfect (can only read last button state), but it works. If you want a nicer-looking option, you can get some Lutron Pico remotes and the Caseta pro bridge. Excerpt saved from the Arctic Shift Reddit archive on 2026-10-23. | Reddit comment · 2020-09 |
Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.
In ReReHome
Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
