en pretty nice idea but not working - chrome Version 115.0.5790.114 - too many request to hue bridge. Same error like hueblog.com in the review of the plugin. maybe dont know how this would improve, but perhaps it makes sense to integrate a direct entry option for the ip of the hue bridge instead only via https://discovery.meethue.com/*

FINALLY. This is a fantastic little extension that fills a frustrating gap on Signify's end in controlling what's supposed to be the best system of smart lights available. Setup was virtually painless, and once connected it does exactly what you'd expect it to - it can see all lights connected to your bridge (even third-party ones that have been added via the hue app), it mirrors the rooms and zones as they are shown in the hue app, and displays the on/off status of each room, zone, and light. You can toggle individual lights on and off, as well as set scenes by room and zone. It doesn't yet support dimming of individual bulbs, but considering this is the only even remotely functional solution available on desktop I couldn't possibly care less. If I want to change the dimming that badly I'll just open the app. Thank you so much to the dev, and please keep up the good work because this is literally the only thing that works.

Works great for me, good for the home office - dont seem to be able to dim individual lights but it suits me fine when I'm working and want to change the brightness of the room.

Works great, very intuitive. Does not allow you to create scenes, but once they are created within the Hue app, you can access them from this extension. Works with both Zones and Rooms. I used it to allow a client to control the scenes for an event space without giving them our Hue credentials or access to the Hue app. THey just needed to be onsite, connected to the same wifi as the bridge (or the guest wifi allowing the bridge to be visible to guests) and press the Hue Bridge button to gain access.
