How to key frame the default daylight system to simulate a day to night transition ?

I tried repositioning the hour slider at various intervals along the timeline but key frames / changes are not automatically saved

There are no lights in my scene tab so I can't click on them and then add key frame in the timeline?

Thanks for reading

sorry to say, but this is currently not possible.

to animate octane node settings in general will need some heavy work implementing an own keyframing system for it and will thus need some time to implement.
but.
i have already completed a few things to at least get animations for the environment in advance, since this is a rather obvious request. i can't give you an exact date, but it will still need a few weeks to get it in...

until done i can only give a short preview
