### {% linkable_title Default turn-on values %}

To set the default color and brightness values when the light is turned on, create a custom `light_profiles.csv` (as described below in the `profile` attribute of `light.turn_on`).

The `.default` suffix should be added to the entity identifier of each light to define a default value, e.g. for `light.ceiling_2` the `id` field is `light.ceiling_2.default`. To define a default for all lights, the identifier `group.all_lights.default` can be used. Individual settings always supercede the `all_lights` default setting.
