My problem is that I have configured the Alexa Routine Node, so that it sends audio when I make a query by voice, for example, what is the temperature of my living room.
If the output device is an Amazon Echo speaker, it sends it and it sounds fine, but if the output device is on my cell phone, it sends it, but nothing sounds.
It does it with the Alexa application open or closed, it doesn't matter, it still can't be heard on the mobile, but it doesn't give any error, it appears sent.
Thank you very much.
Forgive my English, but I'm using Google translate.
I have that installed and registered, but when I ask, I just put the output device as the mobile phone, the answer is not heard on the phone. He stays silent and says nothing.
I have created an on / of (true / false) routine, and when I tell Alexa to turn on hot water, she tells me the temperature of my hot water tank. If I choose send office or all, it works perfectly, and it tells me the temperature, but I would like it only to answer me in the Alexa that I ask.
I think that I would have to choose "my device", but it sends, but it is not heard.
Yes, I don't want him to answer me on the cell phone.
I'm trying to get the response to only be on the same device that Alexa is being spoken to.
That is, if you ask Gardendot to only answer Gardendot, without having to be selected on that list. If you want to ask kitchendot, let kitchendot answer.
I do not know if I am explaining myself well with the translator, I apologize, but I do not know English.
You do not need to mix and match different alexa nodes types.
You should be using the alexa home response node. see examples here - alexa home
Put this in a function node between you alexa home node, and an alexa home response node. Edit to provide the value you want to speak and you should find it works.
if (msg.command == "GetTemperatureReadingRequest") {
var temp = global.get("my value") || 0; // provide your value
msg.extra = {
"temperatureReading": {
"value": temp
},
"applianceResponseTimestamp": new Date().toISOString()
};
msg.payload = true;
return msg;
}
I think you just need to add a change node to set global.my value to the original_state value ( I think it might be msg.context.original_state but I get very confused by the debug display when there are nested levels)
You need to store the value somewhere, so you can send to response node when needed.
Without seeing your flow I don't know what the source of the temperature is.
Your post shows what looks like a response from the alexa home node, however that isn't the source of the temp, as you would have to have already sent it from somewhere else in the flow.
But you can just save it like this - global.set("mytemp",msg.payload)
First of all, I want to apologize to you most sincerely, but you just seemed too heavy with my question, since you didn't understand the answer, and I didn't want to bother you anymore, but I repeat, I apologize.
Now, after many attempts, and reading the answers more carefully, your answer is correct, I have to save the temperature, which, as you say, comes from another source.
I should save it as it says, but honestly, I don't know how to do it... I don't understand the part it says...
Based on the flow that you showed us at the start, you ask the alex home skill to turn ON the hot water, but you want a response telling you the temperature, which seems a little odd.
To me you should ask to turn ON and alexa says OK.
Or ask temperature and alexa tells you the temperature.
This is easy enough to do, but I don't use HA nodes, so not familiar with its messages.
Can you tell me what you send to the HA node in the flow above ?
Yes, I have it as a Switch, because it doesn't work for me as you tell me it should work, and that's why I have it badly, because that's the only way I can make something work... although it works badly, but it does something.
I enclose what the HA node sends to the Flow, and I am willing to change what is necessary, so that it works well and I always thank you for your help and that of all the colleagues.
I think I should change my way of thinking, and put a temperature sensor node, to ask the temperature of the water and alexa tells me the temperature of the water.
