Control Alexa with SmartThings

Has anyone figured out how to send commands to Alexa from SmartThings v3 hub through webCoRE? All the tutorials out there reference the classic app but that no longer works…

Yes. I do it all of the time. You have to make a Simulated Alexa Switch within the ST IDE. You have to add that switch to webcore. Then make an Alexa routine using that switch as a trigger. Then you can write a webcore piston that triggers that switch. What a run-around huh!!
