In Homey, create a Device, select the Google Service App and then select the Text-ToSpeech device.

I installed the app and created the devices, but after that I am stuck. What do I need to do to have a device speaking? I have Nvidia Shield and Google mini, will that do? And I see a message about a Json file. Do I need to do something extra? Thanks for your help

Can you show me a printscreen of all action cards for your devices?  
We are looking for a Sund URL or Website or something.

As I said, I just created a device and tried to have something spoken via eg Google mini.

</div>

Create another flow and as Trigger, select the Url Triggered from the Google TTS Device.  
Add a actioncard that sends the Url token from the trigger (available in the flow) to the device you want to play the speech on.  
Step 2 of the topicpost.

I created those flows as I think they are the same as yours…

But still nothing. Where should that url come from, that I don’t understand…

It looks good.  
If in this flow, you add an action and send the Url as notification to your phone, and then open the Url in your browser, does the file play?

Nothing seems to happen…

</div>

1. Choose “Play an URL” or better “Play an audio clip” (if available).

2. Choose the Tag icon:

 ![IMG_1747](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/7/e/7e49522ea7cf647e40d1ca12e344ca71353e490a.jpeg)

1. Choose the Tag “Url” from the LOKALTAGS:

 ![IMG_1748](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/6/c/6c76612e10a5fe34867bcdcfa19b5b53f21d8afd.jpeg)

That’s it.

Why does it look in the Cast a audio URL as if there is a website filled before the tag?  
([https://website.com/audio.m](https://website.com/audio.m)) is it a placeholder or a mistake?

It looks the same on mine, it’s just an example, a placeholder from Athom.

@Ewen_Le_guennec, the flows look good. Did you create a Google Cloud Service account and put the content of the JSON file into the advanced settings in the app?
