Just small question. I added Blinds Percentage control, when I say "Living room blinds 25 percent", I cannot see in Domotics exactly slider changes. Only status that it is every time Open. Is it a problem on Domoticz side or Controlicz?
Thank you.
so blinds percentage isn't working? Can you email me from your Controlicz profile, and i'll take a look

Hi Madgeni, on my side (blind inverted) i can succesfully say "kitchen blind 100%" and it will be closed, or 0% etc etc...
it's possible to add a command as:
CLOSE kitchen blind that match with 100% and OPEN that match 0%?
Thanks for keep improving this awesome plugin!

Thank you @Madgeni for your continuous work: I’ve recently updated Domoticz and I’ve noticed that now Controlicz is presenting also “dummy switches” to Google They are being identified as “light” type, so I can easily control each of them without needing scene.
Thank you so much!

You can use the 'shortcuts' in the Google Home app to assign a phrase that you can say which is then interpreted to a command / device in Domoticz via Controlicz, I use this for my curtains ie: Say 'Open the curtains' = command <switch the curtains off>.TheCondor wrote: Wednesday 04 July 2018 12:04 is it possible to add a command as:

Been super happy with Controlicz, going to send some beer tokens your way via Paypal, what is your preferred currency?

I'm testing Controlicz with my my Amazon Echo dot. I can see several real devices in Controlicz but not a Dummy switch. Is there a way to configure it to make it visible in Controlicz ?

I'm sorry but no one answer my question.

just a question: how do I control a Selector switch through Controlicz?
I have my vacuum cleaner (Xiaomi) which has different values for different duties (0 --> off, 10 --> clean, etc.).
If I say "Switch on the cleaner", Google home replies ok, but nothing happens.
If I say "Set the cleaner to level 10", Google home doesn't understand.
In Controlicz it's configured as a "Switch", so maybe it's not yet supported?
Thanks,
mantoz
Are you still waiting? or there are a solution for the switch types?.
I there is not a solution, any workarround?
thanks and sorry my poor english
Hi there - I wrote the code to handle Selector switches, but i'm waiting for GH to release the functionality. Once they do, it will work

Re: Controlicz - Domoticz to Google Home/Assistant integration

Ok, thanks a lot
i have a solution (dirty solution, but a solution)
I have a light in my room that i control with a domoticz ir, that is a selector switch with multiples values.
I rename this device as "lights_control" and create another device (switch on/off) that i name "lights_status".
light control is a slave of lights status, and in the light status on and off i put the script comand that i use in 0% and 10% in control.
When i use the "control" device, if refresh the status of the "status" device. And when i use the "status" device, its refresh the "control" device.
Afther this i add the "status" device in the controlicz user and i can see it in the web.
I think if I use this device in google assistant, it works and will be a solution to control only 2 states of a selector (lights, air purifier, etc...)
Now im waiting because this "status" device apears in the controlicz web but not in my google assistant config.

Not sure what I'v done, but suddenly I can see devices on the controlicz site. At least that would be the case if I actually had devices shown
I've created a user with the following settings:
but the devices screen still is empty.
Must be forgetting something simple, but can't figure out what. Maybe it's better to look at this tomorrow, when I the beer has left my system 
btw... Original name, isn't it

Hi Madgeni,
I have a question for you: I'm using Italian on my GH app. How can we users know when something new is implemented by Google?
I mean, for example I read and article about "Continuous conversation", but I think it's implemented only in the English version of GH. The same holds for the music alarm in the morning (using music instead of the normal sound). I assume that even the blinds control it's the same (it seems they're not working yet in Italian with the correct Italian commands "apri/chiudi").
I know this is not Controlicz-related, but for sure you are well informed about it
Thanks!!

All –
I first created what is now Controlicz all the way back in October 2016, initially open-sourcing the native Alexa smart home skill. This required a lot of setup and maintenance by users, and, as I wrote it, me.
From that, Controlicz was born, a cloud service to support the native integration with Alexa, which required minimal setup by the user, and provided the security and scalability necessary to handle a large, interested and excited user base.
Then, when Google Home was announced, and the Smart Home API was released, I was at the forefront, pushing them, hassling them, working late most evenings on conference calls and webexs with them, to get them to understand that there was a large customer base for open source home automation fans. Finally, proudly, in February this year, I released the first non-hardware manufacturer native Google Home App and continue to work with Google on their roadmap. All in my spare time!
Along with that, I host and maintain a (reasonably robust) platform for you all, and again, spend time and effort refining use cases, strengthening the experience for you, answering emails, forum posts, all in my spare time!
I have had immense support from a core set of people, and thank those people for their help, and the donations I’ve received.
However, the costs and effort I put in continue to be drag on me, and I have to announce that Controlicz will be moving to a subscription model shortly.
The cost will be €3/month, which – I believe – is a fair price for the service offered, which will help cover my costs and time in development and support.
This is not a decision I have made lightly, and I completely understand that this will be a disappointment to some, but hopefully you’ll understand and continue to enjoy the Smart Home experience. There is plenty more functionality to come this year, and as Alexa/Google release it, I will be working hard to add it to Controlicz for you.
As always, you can contact me either here, or via email – [email protected]

Seems just fair to me especially since you put a lot of effort into Controlicz and your presence/support here on the forum is incredible.
I believe it is right to pay for a service like that: personally, It has helped me a lot, understanding and experimenting with Domoticz and Google Assistant.
People who cannot implement other solutions (like building their own Google-Speaker) or simply will not buy a Google Home but are using Domoticz can really benefit from this tool.
