There’s currently an issue with the illuminanceMeasurement default handlers, this prevents the creation of the events.  
This is already reported, if you want to use a Driver with this capability you should define your own handlers for now.

> illuminance sensor Edge Driver in SmartThings Drivers (beta) channel the needs to be patched ASAP, before the library update to the hub firmware. Since Edge Driver takes priority to dth, one could have difficulty using illuminance sensor with SmartThings, like the posting in Korean SmartThings Community. [https://m.cafe.naver.com/stsmarthome/41803](https://m.cafe.naver.com/stsmarthome/41803) I think Illuminance Zigbee packet handler needs to be added explicitly, like I did in my Hue Motion Sensor Edge Driver, until the library update to the hub firmware.
