I have used a Contrib node - My Timeout by Neil Cherry - you will need to download and install this

I have assumed the following

  1. Your incoming message from the Light Websocket will have information about the Colour and State of the switch - you can see the values i have used - you can adjust those values accordingly

  2. I have used debug nodes as output - you will need to include the Websocket nodes to communicate your light state and colour - again this will need to be adjusted as appropriate.

Looks great, thank you.
One last question. the output of the change node is send to the debug node.
I have added the light now, but how do I configure the light to receive the correct output of the change node ?
Now the light node is configured with a specific color, but there is no intelligence added to adjust the color.

I can not import that flow - please format it correctly you need the

```
Flow Here
```
For this to work correctly

You need to identify and capture the incoming property that specifies what you current light colour is (thats what the flow context saving does) , then you need to set it to whatever colour you require to show the door is open

I can not tell you what these variables/entities/values are as they vary by type/brand of light that you are using

You will need to capture the incoming message from HA and put a debug on it so we can see what it contains
