Fibaro Skill now available in Alexa store


AutoFrank

Question

Hi everyone,

Exciting times ahead..:D:D .

.... @fat spotted that the official Fibaro Skill is now available in the Alexa store.

 

Hi @T.Konopka - Do we need a new hc2 fw release to be able to leverage this or is it usable straightaway ?

 

Feedback from anybody getting it successfully running most welcome...

Thanks

-f

 

PS - I'll be looking this later and will try and create a Tutorial 

 

PPS - Looks like we don't need new fw, anything after 4.112 will work...

    Thanks @AutoFrank I'll check that out. 

    I'm running HomeBridge on my PI. Is it possible to run both HomeBridge and HA Bridge on the same device?

    That was main reason why I switched to RPI and node sonos http api :)

     

    I tried to run the Automate Asia version of the HA Bridge that auto imports all devices connected to HC2 but couldn't get it to work with Alexa. I was able to get all devices working in the test function but Alexa didn't discover any items and I gave up

    I've been following the forum on bwssytems concerning the HA and from what I can tell, 4.5.1 is really the last stable update. I wouldn't go any further than that... There has been a ton of issues with the latest updates... 

    Its the version that I'm currently using too.

    Hi @AutoFrank,

    Are you using any tool for adding devices and scenes to ha bridge? or are you adding them manually..
