How do I use my Firemote card from HAC in automations

Configuration
,
1

So by some miracle of persistance i managed to set up the HACs integration called firemote that allows you to control media devices like a fire tv and launch apps on an apple TV.

But I can’t seem to wrap my head around HOW to use this inregration (other than just clicking buttons on the remote card,

I’d lIke to set it up so i can define scipts that will send the correct function to the devices (like when I click the plex button it launches Plex on my Apple TV).
