How this automation works

Automate your home entertainment and lighting using a simple web request. When your Webhook event fires, this Applet adjusts the Sonos volume, plays your chosen favorite, and toggles connected lights or smart plugs. Perfect for creating scene-based automations or quick remote commands for your Sonos and Philips Hue setup. Note: This requires a reachable webhook endpoint (URL).
