Hello,
I would like to get color and brightness values for a given Philips Hue (at least the last value Domoticz set it to) but this information is not returned by Domoticz API.

The "/json.htm?type=devices&rid=4242" request returns me:

Code: Select all

{
   "ActTime" : ...,
   "ServerTime" : "...",
   "Sunrise" : "...",
   "Sunset" : "...",
   "result" : [
      {
         "AddjMulti" : 1.0,
         "AddjMulti2" : 1.0,
         "AddjValue" : 0.0,
         "AddjValue2" : 0.0,
         "BatteryLevel" : 255,
         "CustomImage" : 102,
         "Data" : "Off",
         "Description" : "",
         "Favorite" : 1,
         "HardwareID" : 15,
         "HardwareName" : "Philips Hue Bridge",
         "HardwareType" : "Philips Hue Bridge",
         "HardwareTypeVal" : 93,
         "HaveDimmer" : true,
         "HaveGroupCmd" : false,
         "HaveTimeout" : false,
         "ID" : "56",
         "Image" : "LED",
         "IsSubDevice" : false,
         "LastUpdate" : "2017-06-25 16:18:17",
         "Level" : 87,
         "LevelInt" : 87,
         "MaxDimLevel" : 100,
         "Name" : "Hue A",
         "Notifications" : "false",
         "PlanID" : "6",
         "PlanIDs" : [ 5, 9 ],
         "Protected" : false,
         "ShowNotifications" : true,
         "SignalLevel" : "-",
         "Status" : "Off",
         "StrParam1" : "",
         "StrParam2" : "",
         "SubType" : "RGBW",
         "SwitchType" : "Dimmer",
         "SwitchTypeVal" : 7,
         "Timers" : "false",
         "Type" : "Lighting Limitless/Applamp",
         "TypeImg" : "dimmer",
         "Unit" : 1,
         "Used" : 1,
         "UsedByCamera" : false,
         "XOffset" : "0",
         "YOffset" : "0",
         "idx" : "4242"
      }
   ],
   "status" : "OK",
   "title" : "Devices"
}

Which indicates the brightness ("Level" and "LevelInt") but not the color

Change color via Domoticz GUI performs API call to "/json.htm?type=command&param=setcolbrightnessvalue&idx=4242&hue=222&brightness=50", but such values seems to be lost because they are not retrievable via the API.

Did I missed something ?
