Using Elgato StreamDeck to dim lights

Dear friends of automation and HA,

I am struggeling with a JSON code. That’s not a huge surprise since I am not a coder :wink:

What I use:

@ Troon helped me to be able to switch the LED on and off. However, I am using a dial controll for the brightness on the Elgato Stream Deck Plus:


And with the current JSON input:

{
 "brightness_step_pct": 10
}

the dial turned clockwise increases the brightness, however, does not lower the brightness when turned counter clockwise. Any idea?

I am not sure if you have solved this , but here is how you control the brightness using your dial.
Domain = light
Service = Turn on
Enitity = “your light”
Service Data JSON =
{
“brightness”: {{ rotationAbsolute }}
}

For me this worked:

{
  "brightness_step": {{ticks * 10}},
  "transition": 0
}

Thanks for sharing your solution as well!
