Looks cool to me.

To the person who left the 1 star review, you are a tough person to please!!

Hopefully, my 5 stars compensated a bit. It truly was a 5 star experience: registered on controlicz, added the skill, disabled my old skill, rediscovered devices and was back up and running in a jiffy.

Hey Madgeni, seems to be a very great work you did there! Thank you for that! Could you tell me if or when you release the skill for germany? Kind regards.

I'm not sure if this is really the best place to ask for support, but I'm having trouble linking my Echo to my Controlicz account. I set up my Controlicz account just fine, but when I try to enable the skill, and link my account, it won't accept the credentials I use to sign in to the Controlicz site. I get the HTTP Basic Auth prompt, and copy and paste my e-mail address and password, but it fails. Thanks.

Hi - you'll need to switch to HTTPS on your Domoticz.
However, just noticed DNS is screwed, which is nice, not sure how I managed to do that from Paris, without a laptop. Will fix asap tomorrow am.

I'm using HTTPS on it. It's frontended with an Apache server. Does it matter that I have HTTP Auth in front of it?

Madgeni · Post by **Madgeni** » Tuesday 18 July 2017 22:35

hmm, well i don't mind, as long as the connection to domoticz is https. I'll trawl through the logs in the morning and we'll fix it

DNS now ok - think it could be an intermittent issue between godaddy and route53

i've just pushed the German version for certification, so fingers crossed!

Great to hear! Thank you so much for the easy integration!

Madgeni · Post by **Madgeni** » Thursday 20 July 2017 13:39

quick one for the users - if you don't have it working, can you check if you've put 'https://' before your hostname on Controlicz? If so, can you remove it? New users will be asked nicely to remove it

I'm not on FB, but thank you for the post on there highlighting my Alexa skill. If anyone on there has a problem, could you direct them here?

Thanks!

I don't know what's wrong, but alexa keep saying "[device name] doesn't support that". i was trying to get temp (from a sensor) and locking the door. both yield same result.

Madgeni · Post by **Madgeni** » Friday 21 July 2017 19:25

are you invoking get temp as "Alexa whats the temperature of device name?" - that should be ok. Let me know roughly when you did it, and i'll take a look through the logs. Locks might well still be buggy - will take a look tonight

great to see a alexa skill released at the skill store. Is it planned to release this skill in germany too?

Madgeni · Post by **Madgeni** » Saturday 22 July 2017 11:55

yes, it's currently going through certification for Germany, should be this week

Excellent skill. Works perfectly. Took some getting head around SSL and setting up users but once I'd figured it out then the skill found my devices and controls them without issue.
I was running a ha bridge before this but this is now redundant and the skill is far far better.
Thanks for the hard work.

Madgeni · Post by **Madgeni** » Tuesday 25 July 2017 11:05

Thanks Scoobydoo - can I ask you give it a review on Amazon?

jaschu · Post by **jaschu** » Tuesday 25 July 2017 16:16

Unfortunately the Skill isn´t accessible in the german store. Looking forward for using it this week. Sorry for my impatience

Absolutely agree. Was using HA-Bridge until discovering Madgeni's work just a couple of days ago. Worked on first attempt! EXCELLENT WORK!!

Thanks again mate. Let us know if you need any help keeping the server choochin'.
