    How to control from Alexa

    I can turn on/off a group with alexa, and dim it. But how do I get it to use the scenes I have setup in jowihue, or tell it to change the color? I've seen stuff in here about setting up a virtual device to trigger a specific scene, is that the only way?

    Phareous,

    With alexa - as far I understand - you are only able to set the status of a device, like on/off or dim.

    To set a scene (which is not a status) you need to create a device that emulates those scens as statusses. On these devices you need to have script triggering that sets the scenes for the plugin.

    Thanks,

    Wim
