    NOOB Syntax Question

    Please pardon me if this is so basic. I've finally figured out (most) of all the interconnected pieces to make this work (HS account, Plugin, Zee, Alexa app discover devices, etc.) But one thing i can't figure out is some basic syntax.
    For example I started organizing the units in the GUI into their proper rooms. I have two units setup in my bedroom:

    Saying "Alexa - turn on Bedroom Fan" works but
    "Alexa - turn on Bedroom Cans" Alexa responds "Sorry I can't find that device in account"

    In the example above, are the floor:HAI, and the Room:Bedroom just for organizational purposes in the plugin GUI and not supposed to be part of the Alexa syntax? Must the unit name contain the name of the room so to differentiate say between "Kitchen Lights" and 'Bedroom Lights?"

    I wish there were a syntax guide somewhere.

    Hope this make sense. Thanks in advance for any help.

    You can say the room name. I use that for my thermostat. She could be hearing Fans instead of Cans. I would try renaming Cans to Can Lights and see if it works.
