Can you expose light groups via matter?

If I make a Lighting group inside the Aqara app for the T2 bulbs, is there a way to expose that group to matter? I’d like to automate some things and reduce the “popcorn” effect.

Hi , yes you can make groups

Thanks Chris, but I know you can create the group inside the Aqara app. What I would like to do is expose the group itself as an item to matter.

That way I can utilize Zigbee group messaging.

Sorry , but that’s not possible as far as I know

This isn’t exactly what you are looking for, but might help and be more performant than what you see now. If you create a scene with your lights and the toggle action (on/off), you can then sync this scene using Matter Scene Sync (Profile > Connect to Ecosystems > Matter > Scene and Signal Sync). It will come through as a switch that you can control.

That actually seems like it would be a really good work around for the moment. Thank you!
