Hi there,
How can I get Alexa to announce the weather via automation?
It doesn’t work like this:
service: notify.alexa_media_torstens_echo_dot
data:
message: alexa.weather.play
data:
type: tts
Does somebody has any idea?
Greetings Werner

service: media_player.play_media
data:
media_content_id: Alexa.Weather.Play
media_content_type: sequence
target:
entity_id: media_player.torstens_echo_dot

Many Thanks.
I’m not at home right now, but will test it tonight. I’m sure it works.
I only found the “Alexa.Weather.Play” command by searching here.
Is there a list of possible commands?
For example “Tell a joke”.
Thank you very much.
Greetings Werner
