Hey all,

With EchoSpeaks integration is there a way to issue what would normally be a verbal command to Alexa via WebCore?

For example, instead of saying “Alexa, open Big Sky” I want to send that to her through WebCore. Another example is “Alexa, open Digitally Imported and play Lounge”.

Thoughts?

No. It’s requested - often. And Anthony (Tonesto) has said its simply not currently supported by the API he’s using to access Alexa.

Is there any way with Alexa to open an app/skill with Webcore?

Only of you can open it through an Amazon routine. You can either call a routine directly in ES or by webcore through ES.
