Zigbee2Mqtt 2.0 - IKEA five button remote

[mzoha (Mateusz)]

Hi. I’m in the middle of migration from ZHA to Z2M.
In ZHA I was using ZHA blueprint to control led lights.
So I found this blueprint which fits perfectly all my needs.
I don’t know why but most of the time action button (power button) don’t toggle the light. Sometimes is working and sometimes (mostly) not. When I checking automation trace I see that after hitting action button no action is taken:

I’ve already activated “Home Assistant legacy entity attributes” in Z2M settings. But this unfortunately didn’t help.
Do I need to change/set anything elase?

Does anybody know where to find a similar version of this blueprint without the need for the legacy triggers & attributes?
These will be removed in the upcoming Z2M update in January 2025

So i am testing this blueprint with the ikea 5 button remote and is the brightness suppose to go down by holding down the button or do i have to click multiple times ? In my case i hold it down, it fades down a bit then i need to click many times before it’s dim enough, was hoping I could just hold down until desired brightness was achieved.

Any luck? There’s no longer a ‘remote_action’ to link in the automation.

Remote broke for me too after the update. Can’t define the trigger

Same here, couldn’t find a new blueprint yet

I wouldn’t hijacking topic but here is example

This works for me

[Dutchy-79]

That’s just a bandage not a fix for the problem. Also for mine it doesn’t seem to work.

[Sporbillis]

My options in settings look different. The blueprint is broken after the update to v2

This is what my settings show

[Dutchy-79]

It’s the same settings, difference between them is desktop or phone

I finally updated to Z2M 2.0 and I almost have the revised blueprint ready. Just have to figure out how to get the “hold to change brightness” working without the _action entity

[Sporbillis]

I ticked those boxes and now it works but someone else above said this is not proper solution. Do you know why?

[starbuck93]

Yes, because Z2M will not always support the “legacy” options so it’ll be better practice to move forward with the device actions (or whatever they’re actually called)

Zigbee2MQTT 2.0 IKEA TRADFRI 5-Button Remote Actions

This blueprint allows you to more easily assign custom actions to your IKEA TRADFIR 5-button remote with the Zigbee2MQTT 2.0 update and its breaking changes. It does not use of any legacy features of Zigbee2MQTT and allows you to freely assign any action(s) to the buttons and their long-presses. It’s similar to this blueprint and other blueprints variants for this remote, but uses the MQTT device itself instead of a sensor entity, because the entity is no longer exposed by Zigbee2MQTT 2.0 by de…

New version

[starbuck93]

Yeah I saw that. I want my blueprint to specify a (or a few) light(s) and have brightness up and down just work without specifying a script or something in the “brightness hold up” and “release” actions

[starbuck93]

Alright folks, re-import the blueprint and let me know if it gives you any trouble. I have Z2M 2.0 installed with no legacy options checked. @HomeAB @Sporbillis @Dutchy-79 @CornelisNL @10der @spry-salt @donnib

Ty, works for me

Edit, also with legacy turned off.

Just remember, the legacy triggers are deprecated, so you need to pick another trigger method going forward.
