Closed this issue · 3 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would like HA sensor to be usable in Alexa. Currently they can come in as lights however cannot be used as a trigger for a routine. All sensors as lights was too many.

Describe the feature that you would like to be added

configure a list of sensor entities to expose via http://<HUE_BRIDGE>/api/<USER_ID>/sensors

Describe alternatives you've considered

role my own

Describe your use case for this feature

allow Alexa routines to be triggered from HA sensors or automations via helpers

Additional context

For routines my physical hue hub shows motion sensors in Alexa but not temperature or lux. Some experimentation around what type of senses which work will be needed.

I don't have a hue hub to figure this out myself and it seems frivolous given that home assistant already has alexa integration.

This request actually is a duplicate of #50, but again its difficult due to lack of the actual hub or responses.

this link gives some of the details of the json: https://wolfgang-ziegler.com/blog/hue-motion-sensor-api
I can pull the sensor examples from my hub as another reference. I can also assist with testing. I am new to HASS but experienced with API's
