Is it possible to turn on prefer_rgb_color after sunset

[danis197]

Hey, I would like to turn on prefer_rgb_color after sunset, but i don't know how...
anyone has a solution for this?

My idea was to create a button like switch.prefer_rgb_color to easliy turn prefer_rgb_color on and off

Thanks in advance!

We can create an automation that changes the prefer_rgb_color setting of the Adaptive Lighting integration after sunset. Additionally, we can create a virtual switch that allows the user to easily toggle the prefer_rgb_color setting on and off.

Here's how you can achieve this:

1. Automation to set prefer_rgb_color after sunset:

automation:
  - alias: "Set prefer_rgb_color after sunset"
    trigger:
      platform: sun
      event: sunset
    action:
      service: adaptive_lighting.change_switch_settings
      data:
        entity_id: switch.adaptive_lighting_default  # Replace with your Adaptive Lighting switch entity_id
        prefer_rgb_color: true

2. Create a virtual switch to toggle prefer_rgb_color:

First, create an input_boolean which will act as a virtual switch:

input_boolean:
  toggle_prefer_rgb_color:
    name: "Toggle RGB Color Preference"
    initial: off

Then, create two automations. One will turn on prefer_rgb_color when the virtual switch is turned on, and the other will turn it off when the virtual switch is turned off:

automation:
  - alias: "Turn on prefer_rgb_color with virtual switch"
    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: input_boolean.toggle_prefer_rgb_color
      to: 'on'
    action:
      service: adaptive_lighting.change_switch_settings
      data:
        entity_id: switch.adaptive_lighting_default  # Replace with your Adaptive Lighting switch entity_id
        prefer_rgb_color: true

  - alias: "Turn off prefer_rgb_color with virtual switch"
    trigger:
      platform: state
      entity_id: input_boolean.toggle_prefer_rgb_color
      to: 'off'
    action:
      service: adaptive_lighting.change_switch_settings
      data:
        entity_id: switch.adaptive_lighting_default  # Replace with your Adaptive Lighting switch entity_id
        prefer_rgb_color: false

With these configurations, the user can easily toggle the prefer_rgb_color setting using the virtual switch (input_boolean.toggle_prefer_rgb_color). Additionally, the setting will automatically be enabled after sunset.

Thanks a lot!
Finally I understand the
data: entity_id: switch.adaptive_lighting_default # Replace with your Adaptive Lighting switch entity_id
part. I have no idea why I didn't understand this... But now I do!
Thanks nevertheless
