Disabling confirmation for "...tell homeseer to turn off all {Location} Lights"

[klieber]

Just got my echo dot set up and LOVE the new capabilities it brings with HS. My favorite so far is "Alexa, tell homeseer to turn off all the {Location} lights".

However, this requires a confirmation, which I don't want or need. Is it possible to disable this confirmation so Alexa will just do my bidding after the first command?

Second, related question: when I use "turn off all the {Location} lights", it doesn't seem to turn off dimmer lights -- only straight on/off lights. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks.

I don't think you can, however you can get around the issue with this.

Go to setup and under voice, there is a checkbox to confirm in commands that contain all. Suspect if you uncheck that, your issue will go away.

That does not work here when I try it.

That's weird. I just tested it and it worked for me.

Is that with the Homeseer skill ..."Alexa, tell Homeseer....?

Negative. They're all unchecked. I almost suspect it's an Echo thing rather than a Homeseer thing.

I will give the script Jon00 posted a shot and see how that works.

Anyone have an idea on my second question:

I have two videos. The first is with the option checked and the second is without.
