Get Alexa reminder to trigger Homeassistant

Configuration Voice Assistant

I want to create an automation based on reminders that are set on my Alexa device.

For example, if I say: ‘Alexa, remind me tomorrow at 10 AM to do something,’ I want a text to be sent via Telegram when the reminder is triggered, containing the reminder’s context. In this case, the text would say: ‘Do something.’

Is this possible? I haven’t found anything similar.

Look up the Alexa Media Player integration. At last check it still provided next alarm and next reminder…

Thank you with this integration i was able to create my Automation.

For those who are interested, here is my automation.
If a reminder is scheduled to play within the next 60 seconds, a message is sent using a Telegram bot. Suggestions are very welcome!

description: >-
  Check if in the next minute a reminder is triggerd
trigger:
  - platform: template
    value_template: >
      {% set reminder_time =
      as_datetime(states('sensor.echo_next_reminder')) %} {%
      if reminder_time is not none %}
        {{ as_timestamp(reminder_time) | timestamp_custom('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M') == now().strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M') }}
      {% else %}
        false
      {% endif %}
condition: []
action:
  - action: telegram_bot.send_message
    metadata: {}
    data:
      message: >-
        Here is your next reminder: {{
        state_attr('sensor.echo_next_reminder',    'reminder') }}
