The `lifx_cloud` scene platform allows you to activate the scenes that LIFX smartphone apps store in the LIFX cloud.
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
scene:
- platform: lifx_cloud
token: YOUR_LIFX_TOKEN
```
Configuration variables:
- **token** (*Required*): The API token for your LIFX Cloud account.
- **timeout** (*Optional*): Network timeout in seconds (defaults to 10).
### Getting an API token
You create your API token on the LIFX website:
1. Sign in to the [LIFX Cloud](https://cloud.lifx.com/)
2. Click on your e-mail address and select _Settings_
3. Now click _Generate New Token_
4. Enter a meaningful label, such as 'Home Assistant'
5. Click _Generate_
6. Copy the token that now appears
7. Paste the token into the Home Assistant configuration file
