How to send a notification

@alyx said in How to send a notification:

Yep that makes sense but it isnt popping up below is a quick snapshot of the dev panel

one thing at a time

you didn’t answer the question about connection

[Alyx]

@sdetweil Apoligies, tested there.

So I stopped magic mirror/ restarted the pi and it came up with device unresponsive.

[sdetweil]

@alyx ok, and when MM is running you get the completion sound from alexa, correct?

[Alyx]

@sdetweil what do mean by a completion sound? Do you mean the confirmation of ‘ok’ after? If so then yes

[sdetweil]

@alyx when u turn on or off a device, alexa does tada sound… to says it processed your request

[Alyx]

@sdetweil ah my one says ‘ok’ but id assume its the same

[sdetweil]

@alyx I added your config to my MM and added debugging… and it works as expected

samplemodule reports Selfie_shoot was received

SampleModule received a module notification: SELFIE_SHOOT from sender: MMM-AlexaControl

and because u have is as onOff:false
u get a notification every time (on or off)

I did this using the alexa app…

[Alyx]

@sdetweil oh… where do you think I went wrong so?

[sdetweil]

@alyx i don’t know… i didn’t change anything in your config…

if you use the alexa app to turn the plug on or off, do you see the notifications?

[Alyx]

@sdetweil ok I re added the selfie device on the alexa app and it found it fine but its now coming up as unresponsive
