Hello Kimlod. I was just wondering... Would there be any chance of you making a very basic explanation video on YouTube on how to implement Alexa into Echo? I know it's asking a lot, but it would be extremely helpful for us that are not so technical in programming. It can be extremely basic as long ...

Hello again, Kimlood. I agree... Telldus could and should make an official skill for Alexa. I would really appreciate your help here. I will try to go through the process as described, but I'm quite new to this way of programming. I have downloaded the "alexa-home-telldus-master.zip" and s...

Hello All. Does anyone know if it's possible to get TellStick to control remote controlled garagedoor openers? I have a Trec (Nordic OEM brand) garagedoor opener, and it says 433 Mhz on the remote. Has anyone else tried to get the TellStick to learn remote controlled garagedoors? Is it possible? Tha...

Hello again, Kimlood. Thanks for your help the last time. I think I have gotten a few steps closer to my end goal. I however are struggling a little bit with "The ALexa Skill" settings. Please see my screengrab below. I have hidden the "keys" and adresses which I suspect might b...

Hi R1kkie. Thank you so much for a very helpful reply. I had not done the security profile as you suggested. I have however fixed that now (I think). It still looks like there is one or two small details that are not correct since I'm not getting the "green" checks on the "Configurat...

Dont worry about the green check. I dont have it but it works anyway. Check if your alexa can discover your devices. And you dont have to do the last two either. :) Thanks again for the positive and superfast reply, R1kkie :-) I'm at the office now, but I'll check my Alexa as soon as I get home. On...

Thanks Kimlood. One of the problems is that this summary might be correct, but it's too confusing when you have no experience with creating Alexa SKills or Lambda functions. You get lost in the details of everything. I think therfore it would have been very helpful with an isntruction video or more...

Awesome! You are correct. I have now been able to enter "Allowed return url's". Should there be anything in the "Allowed origins" field as well? Thanks again :-) Looks good, I think you are ready to test it.. I feel so close, but it still does not work. I have deleted my previou...

Well, did you create a new security profile? Did you update the Alexa skill with all those parameters from the new security profile? No, I used the old Security Profile. I made a new now, and updated the Skill with these parameters. I found out one thing that I think might have been missing. I noti...

BTW - I think it is most likely that you have the space at the end of the client secret - I then got beyond that screen but couldn't authorise using a smart phone as it would timeout when switching to the phones browser form the app. Check the Client Secret , then go onto http://alexa.amazon.com/ t...

Tried to type down all the steps but I get the same results as you when I try to link the account. Kimlood, can yoy read through these steps and see if there is something wrong here? 1.
