Changing Labels for Existing Production Capability

[nayelyz (SmartThings Developer Support)]

Hi!

Please, take a look at this post where another Community member showed how he changed the stock capabilities label and other properties like range or alternatives:

[ST Edge] What is the purpose of 'state' section in the 'list' display type?

Below is a screenshot of 2 stock fanSpeed capabilities with a device-config applied. You can see that the label, range, and even alternatives have been modified. Everything worked as expected. This is what encouraged me to try the same thing with list. According to the presentation, fanSpeed is a list under the hood. [components] Here’s the device-config: type: profile detailView: - component: Fan capability: fanSpeed version: 1 values: - key: fanSpeed label: Speed range: - 0 - 3 alternatives: - key: 0 value: Off type: inactive - key: 1 value: Slow - key: 2 value: Medium - key: 3 value: Fast - component: Light capabili…

I made the following sample to show how to change only the label:

                "component": "main",

}

That sample is in JSON but you can get the device-config used to create the device presentation (in the format you prefer: -j or -y) with the following command:

smartthings presentation:device-config 640367e6-70bd-36c9-9ccf-2852208635da -y -o=deviceConfig.yaml

Note: In this case, 640367e6-70bd-36c9-9ccf-2852208635da is the presentationID created using the config I shared above.

Let me know if this info helps
