When contact sensor is open, announce on Google Speaker

[AussieNix]

Hi

Is it possible to integrate Smartthings with Google Speakers so that when my PostBox sensor is open, my Google Speaker will announce “You’ve got mail”

Google speakers are not officially integrated unfortunately but you can use Cast-web-api (but this will require an always on computer or raspberry pi) to make this work:

[RELEASE] cast-web v1.2.1 - Chromecast Integration (EDGE Driver discussion begins in post 1668)

This is a pretty full featured Google Cast integration for Smartthings. Due to the limitations of ST it requires a permanent API application on your network, that bridges between ST and your Cast devices. To get started, visit the project website: Requirements Any device that runs node.js and has a fixed IP on your local network Chromecast, ST Hub Features Adds any Cast device as a music player Full playback information and control WebCoRE integration GitHub integration Visit the website for more Limitations You still need the API You can only cast DRM free content using the presets (due to the Cast protocols design, that will never change) The API host (proxy) still needs a static IP address, will change soon Need help?
