Hub Mesh v1
When two or more Hubitat Elevation® hubs run on the same local network, you can seamlessly share and use devices in automations between multiple hubs with Hubitat® Hub Mesh. Using a simple share and link setup, all participating Hubitat Elevation® hubs are able to effortlessly control and stay in sync with local devices.
Configuring Hubitat® Hub Mesh
- From the Hubitat Web Interface select Devices and press the Hub Mesh button.
- Using the Share local devices drop-down list, select the devices you want to share with other Hubitat Elevation® hubs and press the Add to mesh button.
- NOTE: Hub Mesh is available starting from hub platform version 2.2.4.x and is only compatible with other Hubitat Elevation® hubs running 2.2.4.x or later.
- On another hub where you would like to Link to devices shared in the Hub Mesh, select them from the Link to remote devices drop-down list and press the Create Devices button.
- NOTE: Device Preferences and Information changes will update on linked device after 1 minute, but they cannot be changed from the linked device.
- Links from shared Hub Mesh devices will be created in the devices list of the hub linking to them. Multiple hubs can link to devices shared through Hub Mesh.
- You may also add a single device to Hub Mesh by simply turning on the Hub Mesh Enabled option in the settings of the device you wish to share with other Hubitat Elevation® hubs.
- NOTE: To link to the shared device, you will use the Link to remote devices drop-down list on the hub where you want the linked device to be available as described above in Step 3.
- To remove devices from Hub Mesh, select them from the Stop sharing local devices drop-down list and press the Remove from mesh button.
- Devices which were linked to other hubs will not be deleted when they are removed or unavailable to Hub Mesh, but will instead switch to a Disabled state. If you add them to the mesh again or the hub which was sharing them returns to Active status, the linked devices will be automatically re-enabled.
- NOTE: If you no longer want a Hub Mesh Linked Device in your device list, it must be manually removed.
