Tasker Phillips Hue Color Parameters

Hi @Rawlins_Riles thanks for posting! The SharpTools Tasker plugins list all the commands that a device reports that it has. In other words, these are defined by the SmartThings device handler, not by SharpTools.

A common source of reference information is the SmartThings Capabilities documentation.

Here are the relevant capabilities based on your question:

As you’ll see, most of the values are 0-100 (%). setHue is a bit of a weird one in that hue is typically expressed in 0 to 360°, but SmartThings maps that same value between 0 to 100. The following post may be helpful as a reference:

setLevel also has a quirky history in SmartThings in that it officially expects two arguments (level, rampRate/rampDuration), but most handlers are fine accepting a single argument of just the level. You can use the overflow menu in the top action bar to override the command and delete the second argument if you wish.

And setColorTemperature typically expects the Kelvin value (eg. 2000, 3000, 7000, etc).
