Link / claim a device
Bring a controller into your household account (or your organization).
Paths:
- Home → Quick action Link
- Settings → Link another device
Who can claim
| Context | Who |
|---|---|
| Home | Signed-in consumer (primary account) |
| Organization | Org member with permission to add devices (optional Organization ID on the link form) |
Steps in the App
- Open Link your device.
- Prefer the short setup code on the kit label (full URLs still work).
- On web: scan with the mobile App, or type the code from the label.
- On mobile: use Scan your kit for the QR on the box.
- Follow the flow:
- Scan or enter setup code
- Claim to your household — attach the controller to your account
- Connect Wi‑Fi — send home network credentials next
- Confirm the device appears in the header Device picker and shows as online when connected.
Advanced: enter an Organization ID if you are claiming into an org instead of your household.

- Open Monitor / Control for that device.
- Optionally create scenes, schedules, automations, or a dashboard.
