I am a bit (mentally) stuck in the setup. I have a raspi with homassistant os and conbee2 module installed. I want to expose some of my devices to amazon alexa with diyhue. so deconz is running locally and is accessible via homeassistant… I now installed the diyhue addon and configured it as i thought it might be… ```auto config_path: /config/diyhue mac: DC:A6:32:29:60:29 debug: true deconz_ip: 192.168.178.49 no_serve_https: true ``` MAC is the mac-address of the primary interface of the pi, deconz ip is the primary ip of it… IIf i have a look at the protokoll it looks like this… ```auto [s6-init] making user provided files available at /var/run/s6/etc...exited 0.

pings to [discovery.diyhue.org](http://discovery.diyhue.org) can be disabled, but Hue Essentials that support diyHue will not be able to automatically discover the diyhue instance. I cannot figure if you use recent beta release of the official master release, how did you setup Deconz? ---

i am using the official Master. Regarding deconz, i am using the “standard” Homeassistant add-on with device: /dev/ttyAMA0 and: | Container | Host | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | 40850/tcp | | deCONZ API backend (Not required for Ingress) | | 5900/tcp | | deCONZ via VNC (Not required for Ingress. Not secure!) | | 8081/tcp | | deCONZ WebSocket (Not required for Ingress) | ---

If Deconz is connected directly to Home Assistant and not to DIYHue, then you will not be able to set up your light to connect to Alexa through DIYHue. You would have to first connect Deconz to DIYHue then to Alexa. You can’t connect them to DIYHue through HA. ---
