Announce with Alexa when MyQ garage door opens
How this automation works
Control your Alexa-connected devices automatically when your Ambi Climate detects high temperature. This Applet runs when the temperature measured by your Ambi Climate device goes above a set threshold, triggering a Voice Monkey routine in Alexa. Perfect for maintaining comfort and efficient energy use at home when the temperature fluctuates.
