Prior to setting up your lights in ItemPath, you'll need to ensure your Philips Hue bridge is connected to a Philips Hue account. If you do not already have one, you can create an account here.
Before you begin these steps, you'll want to ensure your Philips Hue bridge is nearby. Be ready to physically press the button on the center of your Hue Bridge when prompted by the website, to prevent the connection attempt from timing out.
If you've already set up a "Home", click Join Existing Home. Otherwise, click Create Home and follow the prompts.
Step 3:
Once you've connected to a home, and a bridge is detected, the site will indicate "Hue Bridge Found". Press the round button in the center of your Hue bridge to connect it with your account.
If the attempt to connect the Hue Bridge times out, click Try Again, then click the button in the cetner of your Hue Bridge again.
If you receive the message "No Hue Bridge Found", you'll need to review your setup in the Philips Hue mobile app.
See Setting up a Zone for step-by-step instructions on setting up the mobile app, then return to your Philips Hue Account and repeat the steps to connect the bridge to your account.
