Is it possible to support the HUE sensor API to get things like temperature? #724

Closed srchacker closed 6 years ago

srchacker commented 6 years ago

Looking at the HUE API, it looks like it should be possible to do a ZLL Temperature -> vera request so that alexa's "what's the temperature in here?" command would work. Is there some fundamental problem with this? I'm not too familiar of how alexa interfaces with the hue interface so not sure if if trying this is worthwhile. Any advice? Thanks in advance.

I believe this question has been asked before. Unfortunately I don't think it is possible

721 read temperature

Only if amazon will support that call on the local Hue API call. If it does not, then it will not work.

Closing since this is not an available feature from Amazon.
