Sending Notifications to alexa

Configuration Voice Assistant
1

Pretty new to HA and have been trying to read as much of the community docs as possible.

However im a little stuck with how to send notifications to alexa devices when a sensor automation is triggered.

Its a simple automation that I took from a blueprint and that works with notifying mobile device.

I would like to send this notifications to the alexas in my house and that is where im a little stuck. I installed the media player from hacs but even though the inital setup seems good - all the entities are showing as unavailable.

I do have nabu casa subscription, alexa to HA seems to be working pretty well.

I very highly recommend using “Chime TTS” HACS integration to send notifications to Alexa devices. Has worked really well for me

Thanks - will give this a try.

Looking at the notes it seems to use alexa media player, as that isnt working for me at the moment will have to see if this helps.
