Amazon Echo / Alexa app

[jetsetter]

Hello Daniel!
Great News!

I had read the documentation but i did not see nothing about get status by voice??

Is it not possible? For example: Alexa, What's the status of kitchen lamp?

Another aspect is about rolls.. Will be possible to control rolls by saying: Alexa, up kitchen roll. Alexa, down kitchen roll or something like that??

Thanks Daniel.

Great job!

Hi Adiaz,

Regarding the status, this was not possible with the previous capabilities that amazon had expose to smart home skill creators, but the new lm skill and lm app updates from Daniel are based on the whole new set of capabilities supported by amazon, so in theory, we can now have the objects status information passed back to Alexa, this isn’t seem to work right now, I believe that Daniel is currently working on this (you can see that I have asked him the same thing two replies above).

Regarding the rollers, you can control them normally by voice as long as you set them up like a dimming light (on/off and percentage). For:
- closing the roller you say “Alexa, turn on roller x” 
- opening the roller you say “Alexa, turn off roller x”
- setting the roller to 10% shade you say “Alexa, set roller x to 10%”
