Nabu Casa Alexa secure entities

Configuration

Hmmm…thought as much. Not sure I want to expose things like covers/locks/alarms without any security.

In the google assistant docs:

Secure Devices

A secure device cannot be opened by Google Assistant unless a secure_devices_pin is set up. The following domains cover secure devices: lock , alarm_control_panel and covers with device types garage and door .

To allow opening, set the secure_devices_pin to something and you will be prompted to verbally provide this when opening the device. Closing and locking these devices does not require a pin.

For the Alarm Control Panel if a code is set it must be the same as the secure_devices_pin . If code_arm_required is set to false the system will arm without prompting for the pin.

Not sure why the security settings are different for Alexa and Google?
