Setup Scene, Automation to control eWeLink Support devices

Devices connected through Home Assistant REST API and WebSocket API can only be mapped as entities instead of devices, which makes it impossible to directly control devices via Home Assistant’s Scene and Automation. To solve this problem, you need to enable the Advanced Mode (Lovelace Console > Profile > Advanced Mode). To use eWeLink Support devices in Automation, you need to first create Scene that contains your devices, and then select Activate Scenario in Action > Action Type of Automation.
