Describe the feature
From what I have read, Light Profiles (contained in light_profiles.csv) are largely redundant and from my testing don't seem to work. They are also complicated to set up requiring conversion of light data into x, y values.
Light Schedules, on the other hand, are much easier to set up, via the UI, and use much more user-friendly lighting parameters. They also work.
Please replace the Light Profile entry in the Light Turn On function:
with an optional Light Schedule chooser (taken from a Philips Tap Dial Blueprint):
Use cases
Potentially, any Light Turn On call when the user wants to control colour temperature, brightness, colour, transition for different times of the day and days of the week.
Schedules can be used across multiple lights, if required.
Current workarounds
More complex logic in automations using conditional building blocks to check time of day and apply the relevant light parameters
Anything else?
