Using double tap feature of z-wave switch (when routed through Hubitat)

Configuration

I currently have all my Z-Wave and ZigBee devices integrated into HA through my old Hubitat hub. This is because my current HA box doesn’t have either Z-Wave or ZigBee, and it’s worked fine like this so far. All of my Z-wave light switches support assigning different functions when I double tap either the on or off buttons. I’d like to utilize this feature in HA, but I’m not sure how to do it. It doesn’t look like the support is built in (possibly since the devices are being routed through Hubitat). The only way I’ve thought of so far is to set up a virtual button in Hubitat that is triggered when I double tap a switch, and then share that virtual button to HA in order to use it to trigger something (automation, scene, etc…). If there’s a better and/or easier way to do this, I’d appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction. Thanks!

UPDATE: I was actually wrong, and the support is built in with the Hubitat integration. I found it in the automation section when picking one of my compatible switches as a trigger. Not sure how I missed it until now.

Yep. Almost positive.

Depends on the device, but the double tap is likely being executed as a ZWave Central scene command. (thats how Zooz, Inovelli and most of the vendors that support extended buttons do it now) Your Hubitat hub is likely registered to the switch for group 0 lifeline and is getting the central scene commands. It has to handle the response and tell HA something happened.

Conversely if you had a ZWave stick in your HA install you’d just trigger on the appropriate central scene command
