Triggering voice announcements from HA

Check out this thread. If you aren’t afraid of a little coding you can use Appdaemon to send text to this and it will output it on the desired alexa unit.

Right now, I have mine telling me when the back door is opened if it’s after we have set the nighttime mode at the house. I open the door and Alexa pops up and says “the back door is open, please remember to close and lock it when you are done”.

No amazon AWS type coding required.
