Stepwise Brightness Control via Button

Start Event

A single button press serves as the start event for the workflow.

Steps

Add a "Control Accessory" Step

We start by turning on the light.

Add an "If/Else" Step

Next, add an If/Else step with the condition: Brightness is less than 25%. If the condition is met, set the brightness to 25%.

Add an "Else If" Step

Click the plus icon between "If" and "Else" to insert an "Else If" step. Check if the brightness is less than 50%, and if that condition is true, set the brightness to 50%.

Then repeat the same pattern with additional "Else If" steps for 75% and finally 100%.

Blink the Light When Maximum Brightness Is Reached

Now tap on "Else execute". Any actions you add there run when brightness is already at 100%.

Add a "Control Accessory" step to turn off the light. Then add a "Wait" step set to 1 second. Finally add another "Control Accessory" step to turn the light back on.

This creates a short blink effect when you press the button and the light is already at full brightness.

Dim the Light

To dim the light instead, create a second workflow. You can use a double press of the button as the trigger.

Start by checking if brightness is greater than 75%. If true, set it to 75%.

Then repeat the same logic for 50% and 25%.

Finally add one last check: if brightness is above 0%, turn the light off.

Final Overview

Each time the button is pressed, the brightness increases in 25% steps.
