I want a Particle Photon to trigger the IFTTT action of a Phillips Hue light changing brightness to either 0%, 25%, 50%, etc. The event seems to be triggering, but the brightness does not change as expected.
On Particle Console, the Integrations section, I created a new integration:
Event Name: set_hue
URL: https://maker.ifttt.com/trigger/set_hue/with/key/MY_REAL_LIFE_KEY
Request Type: POST
Request Format: Web Form
Device: Any
Advanced Settings > Form Fields > Custom
Value1: {{Value1}}
Http Headers
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
On my Photon, I run the following:
void setup() {
}
void loop() {
static int brightness = 25;
// Get some data
String Value1 = String(brightness);
brightness = (brightness + 25) % 125;
// Trigger the integration
Particle.publish("set_hue", Value1, PRIVATE);
// Wait 3 seconds
delay(3000);
}
In my events log, I can see things like:
Name Data Device Published At
hook-response/set_hue/0 Congratulations! You've fired the set_hue event particle-internal 6/2/19 at 6:58:14 pm
hook-sent/set_hue particle-internal 6/2/19 at 6:58:14 pm
set_hue 50 6/2/19 at 6:58:13 pm
Any ideas why this doesn't seem to affect the brightness on my Hue?
