Help with one button dimmer node

Third party integrations Node-RED

Hi, I’m using one-button-dimmer node for my ikea remote to dim my lights
Before my ha crashed along with my node red flows backup, I used to able to get it working but I can’t recall exactly how I did it
Could anyone check what I’m missing?

When I hold the button and release, i can see the payload number increasing but no changes with my lights.

It looks like you’re using a one-button-dimmer node in your flow, which is used to control the brightness of a light by pressing and holding a button on a remote control. This node appears to be configured correctly, but it may not be receiving the correct input from the switch node that precedes it.

The switch node you have configured is set up to listen for messages on the zigbee2mqtt/0x90fd9ffffe5a4bee/action topic, and to route those messages to one of 13 different outputs depending on the value of the payload property in the incoming message. In order for the one-button-dimmer node to receive the correct input, the switch node needs to receive a message on the zigbee2mqtt/0x90fd9ffffe5a4bee/action topic with a payload value of either brightness_up_hold or brightness_down_hold.

If you’re not seeing any changes in the brightness of your lights when you press and hold the button on your remote control, it’s possible that the messages being sent to the switch node do not have the expected payload values. You can verify this by adding a debug node after the switch node and inspecting the output to see what values are being received. You can then adjust the rules in the switch node to route those messages to the appropriate output.
