hi,
I would like to use node red to interact with voicemonkey and home assistant in order to launch announcements on my alexa devices. To do this I need to launch actions such as rest on home assistant as shown below:
RESTful Command: trigger\_voice\_monkey
data:
deviceId: vmalertdev
text: Attenzione rilevata pioggia
action: rest\_command.trigger\_voice\_monkey
I'm new to node red but I'm very passionate about it.. thanks to anyone who wants to help me.

Sounds like a question for the Home Assistant forum?

If you want to use HA then as @Paul-Reed says their forum is the probably the best place to ask those questions.
Saying that you can send voice, text and announce commands direct from node-red to Alexa using [node-red-contrib-alexa-remote2-applestrudel (node) - Node-RED](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-alexa-remote2-applestrudel) nodes, why envolve HA at all.
