@cpd5899 What Alexa-related integrations are you using? I don’t think media player would have a role in this. I’d like to get this to work (at first anyway) with intent_script. I started with this article:
I was finally able to get it working last night. Next step is to figure out how to identify the person speaking, as well as the physical Alexa device that the request is coming from, and feed that information back to HA.
I don’t believe either of the generally used skills have this at the moment. Given the fact that the Alexa skill should be passing person IDs along, I believe it would be possible to alter the events sent to the home assistant from either the Alexa smart home integration, or the Alexa media player custom integration. However, neither integration currently seem to hand or pass this information along.
Yeah, it needs to be written into the skill itself. They have an example on the developer info from Amazon… but I’m totally lost in WHERE and HOW to integrate it into the skill.
Not sure what anyone else thinks, but if the skill passed the info to HA… it would TRULY be a smart home as you could have NR or automation only perform per the user.
