Hello Guys!
I would like to ask a more experienced colleague for advice on the functionality of the solution detailed below.
So, I have an alarm system equipped with many smart and iot options. I have a wireless relay in the alarm system, which I have already connected to my gate controller, and I can press this button from the alarm interface. It works great!
My other system is Homey pro, I was able to add this alarm device as a virtual switch with a script and I can also open my gate from the Homey interface.
Now comes the point!
I bought a google home voice assistant and linked both Homey and my alarm. A lot of my devices appear in Home (GoogleHome app) (typically, it seems to me that only a part of the stuff integrated in Homey has come under GoogleHome. This gate button of mine is not present and period. I got stuck here unfortunately.
Actually, I would like to open my garden gate with voice control, that would be my goal.
Thank you very much any guidance for you!
You can create a flow called “open garden gate” which, opens the gate.
Start the flow with “This flow is started” card.
Now you should be able to yell hey google, start open garden gate
(It might be possible the flow has to be marked as favourite flow).
Note: anyone who knows the sentence can open the garden gate.
Hi Peter Again!
Thanks for the solution idea, as always it seems very simple, although I’m not sure I understand what you wrote completely clearly, despite all that…
I originally had a Flow for this (i mean garden gate open)
This is what it looks like
Then this morning I added one like this (this is how I interpreted your suggestion)
Unfortunately, there are no results.
Although I have a little feeling that the second one doesn’t sound very good, that’s probably why it doesn’t work…
Do you have any idea where I am going wrong.
Thank You!
Hi Tamas, no problem.
You’ll need to create a new flow like:
When…
“flow is started”
Then…
Start the run “kapu nyot” script card.
The name of this flow is the name you’ll have to use in the voice command.
