Philips Hue support is integrated into Home Assistant as a light platform. The preferred way to setup the Philips Hue platform is by enabling the [the discovery component](/components/discovery/).
If you want to enable the light component directly, add the following lines to your `configuration.yaml`:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
light:
platform: hue
host: DEVICE_IP_ADDRESS
# Optional, make this unique if specifying multiple Hue hubs
filename: my_hue_hub_token.conf
```
