Parameters

name (required) is anything you'd like to use to identify this device. You can always change the name from within the Home app.
type (required) is a case-insensitive identifier that lets the plugin know how to handle your device. Find your device type on the Supported Devices page.
manufacturer and model are anything you like; the purpose of them is to help you identify the device.
id (required) and key (required) are parameters for your device. If you don't have them, follow the steps found on the Setup Instructions page.
ip needs to be added only if you face discovery issues. See Common Problems for more details.

To find out which id belongs to which device, open the Tuya Smart app and check the Device Information by tapping the configuration icon of your devices; it is almost always a tiny icon on the top-right.
