NodeRed Alexa Media Player assistance

Third party integrations Node-RED

Hey all,

I am trying to convert the example from the GitHub Alexa Media Player into a NodeRed call:

service: media_player.play_media
target:
entity_id: media_player.guest_room
data:
media_content_type: custom
media_content_id: ‘what time is it’

How would this be done exactly?

Pretty much the same. Instead of YAML you use JSON format.

In the JSON field its probably:

{“media_content_type”:“custom”,“media_content_id”:“what time is it”}

I use a " render template" for the text node and a " Alexa Routine" node for the echo

Wonderful! Worked perfectly!! Thank you!!!
