What's the exact model?

Ah. If it's WiFi you probaly need the Tuya or Tuya local integration. I can't really help with that. I thought this was again zigbee related.

If the core Tuya integration in Home assistant doesn't work, try one of the tuya related integrations you can load thru HACS.

I have now the normal tuya mode working
What would I have to insert as a client id for local tuya?

create a project on tuya developers website, once setup there, you have client id and user id. Also you can find the SECRET, run a query for your hardware. You'd have to google a walkthrough for setting all up.

I can not scan the qr code too tough
maybe switch to "light" mode

Unfortunately I can not find the cloud service there
For me itlooks like they have no development cloud service anymore

works for me though.. again, pc/edge/chrome. From mobile it will be a pain in the *ss

open project

that should be it
1 Install the Tuya Integration:
Go to Settings > Integrations in Home Assistant.
Click on Add Integration and search for Tuya.
2 Set Up a Tuya IoT Account:
Register on the Tuya IoT Platform.
Add your Silvercrest ZigBee Gateway and its associated devices in the Tuya app (Smart Life or Lidl Home app).
3 Generate API Keys:
On the Tuya IoT Platform, create a new Cloud Project and enable the ZigBee API.
Link your Tuya account to your Cloud Project.
4 Link Home Assistant with Tuya:
Enter the API keys you generated on the Tuya platform into the Home Assistant Tuya integration.
5 Add Devices:
After completing the integration, the ZigBee devices connected to your Silvercrest Gateway should be visible in Home Assista
can i do this too there?
night crater
i would buy a zigbee dongle to avoid all that if using zigbee 😉
thought it was about wifi
night crater
ha's zbt-2 or smlight slzb-06.
there are cheaper ones too, but those two i know run good, fast and reliable.
suggest rethinking protocols and usecases though.. 😉
bit over the place
If you can do zigbee > go zigbee instead of wifi. Dont advise Tuya, TP-Link, Tapo too btw.

Can i by the way delete tuya if i have the lights working or nah?
have these now working fine
night crater
nah
you can if all runs on zigbee..
but not wifi, you'll need either the og tuya ^^^ or localtuya
stray inlet
you can if all runs on zigbee..
They are running on ZigBee yes
Via the silvercrest Gateway
stray inlet
but not wifi, you'll need either the og tuya ^^^ or localtuya
Ok and for local tuya I will need the API?
Client id and stuff
And user id
night crater
if running zigbee, no need for anything tuya
]#confused
have you done some research about zigbee / wifi / controlling 🙂
stray inlet
if running zigbee, no need for anything tuya
But the ZigBee gateway runs over tuya 😅
And how can I connect new lights to the ZigBee gateway without using the tuya app?
night crater
in that case indeed you need the tuyaah int. Or go zigbee dongle and connect silvercrest to zigbee. That way you would not need the integration anymore.
