Valve Item Not Showing in HomeKit Automations

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to integrate a valve into my HomeKit setup using OpenHAB. I’ve set up the channel and item correctly and added the HomeKit metadata. However, when I set the item type to “Valve”, it doesn’t appear in the Home app automations. If I change the item type to “Lighting”, the item appears and can be used in automations without any issues.

Is there a known limitation with using the “Valve” type in HomeKit automations? Or is there a workaround to get the valve working correctly in HomeKit automations? Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
