Alexa to read Domoticz Temperature sensors

This flow, by using NodeRed Skill for Alexa, is able to read temperature sensors from domoticz by asking: "Alexa, what is the temperature in ..."

You will need to enable NodeRed Skill and subribe the account (free), then create your device ad add the Domoticz IDX configuration to the flow

Create an Alexa Device for each Temp device you want to read.

Hope you will enjoy it!
