So I had some time to think what I would like most as automation. Currently i have a motion detector and based on time and day, there is different actions it does (choosing different switches in that room).
Now I would like to have a choice to be presented with when i enter the room, so more a conversational approach.
So when that motion sensor triggers, I would like to have a voice asking me:
1 what switches i want on
2. what temperature i would like for how long
and then the HA will make that happen.
I saw the DialogFlow integration, but i dont get it completely. What device can i use for speach. I do have a google home mini, but i fail to understand the setup to create here.
Anyone ideas on this or know better optoins?
So lets give a small update
I kindof understand dialogFlow integration and got the sample working in google project.
Where does the diaglog flow interact with the user, i really dont get it and feel pretty stupid. in and output text/speech is pretty unclear to me where to set/initiate.
Anyone care to explain?
for the sake of getting somewhere, i asked a chatGPT question how to do dialogflow
To automate chat interactions with Home Assistant through Dialogflow, you will need to follow the steps listed below:
- Set up a Dialogflow agent.
- Connect your agent to Home Assistant (Integrations > Home Assistant).
- Determine what user intents and entities make up your chatbot conversation.
- Create your intents and entities in Dialogflow.
- Train your agent to understand how to respond to user queries.
- Test your chatbot to ensure it is responding appropriately.
- Configure the integration in Home Assistant to enable the chatbot.
- Integrate your chatbot with an external messaging platform (e.g. Facebook Messenger).
so now i get the input needs to be outside HA… will start looking in to other soltuions. Probably the speach stuff for 2023 will help me soon enough
