Question about Ubiquiti G4 Doorbell

Hardware
1

I picked up the Ubiquiti G4 doorbell at a good sale price. I was wondering if I can get the Alexa Echo units in my home (that are already on HA) to ring when someone presses the Ubiquit doorbell button?

I have done that, with a G3 but should be the same. It also announces someone is at the door and toggles a few lights

Nice- is it easy to setup? Would be awesome if you can share any tutorials.

Have you set up the unifi protect integration ?

Is it running on a udm pro similar ?

Yep- UniFi Protect is set up in HA and it can see my cameras. And yes, running it though UDM Pro SE.

I have yet to replace my Doorbell as I don’t have a UniFi Chime and wanted to make sure that there is some audible notification in the house before I change it.

I’m assuming, there is an automation for the ring button press? Would love to see how you’ve set that up.

Here’s my automation:

description: ""
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: binary_sensor.front_door_doorbell_2
    from: "off"
    to: "on"
condition:
  - condition: time
    before: "22:00:00"
    after: "06:00:00"
action:
  - service: tts.google_translate_say
    data:
      entity_id: >-
        media_player.bedroom_tablet_a7_lite,media_player.nestmini1645,
        media_player.lounge_google_speaker
      message: Someone's at the front door
mode: single

Not sure you can run it without a chime/doorbell maybe look on unifi’s forum. Good automation above, similar to mine.
