Hue API Compatibility

Erik Baauw edited this page Apr 15, 2017 · 15 revisions

These pages document the differences between the deCONZ REST API, v2_04_40 beta, and the Philips Hue API, v1.17.0. Ultimately, we would like Philips Hue applications (like my Homebridge plugin) to work unaltered with deCONZ.
