Alexa voice control for Tasmota devices

Post by MikeF »

There is a simple way to achieve Alexa voice control of Tasmota-flashed devices, such as Sonoff and Shelly switches / plugs.

Within the web GUI for a Tasmota device, head to Configuration > Configuration Other, and select 'Belkin WeMo' under Emulation. Give the device a useful friendly name, e.g., 'Porch' in the example below, and click 'Save'.

Then ask Alexa to discover devices: 'Alexa, discover devices'. Once Alexa answers that she (it?) has discovered your device, you can then say (e.g.): 'Alexa, turn Porch on', or 'Alexa, turn Porch off'.

If your Tasmota device is linked to Domoticz, then its status will be updated in the Domoticz web GUI.

Hi,
all is working perfectly using your suggestion, but, if I'm using a sonoff TH with has temperature and humidity sensor, how i possible to query temp and humidity status to alexa. I think that it's possible only to add device with "switch or on/off " action. isn't true?
