Alexa Proactive Mode & Triggering a Routine

@Kitkat wrote:

Hi,
Having problems creating an Alexa routine triggered by a Home Assistant state change.
I’ve got Alexa Smart Home API working, account linking is fine. Alexa can reliably control switches & lights and read temperature values from sensors.

But when I try create a routine triggered by a ‘Smart Home’ event, none of my devices show in the list in the Alexa app (New routine -> When something happens -> Smart Home -> Choose Device). I’ve got a binary sensor exposed to Alexa as a test but although the device is discovered by Alexa, it doesn’t allow it to be used to trigger a routine.

I’ve got ‘Send Alexa Events’ enabled, account is linked and I think I’ve got the config right.

alexa:
  smart_home:
    endpoint: https://api.eu.amazonalexa.com/v3/events
    client_id: !secret alexa_client_id
    client_secret: !secret alexa_client_secret

There is nothing in the log to indicate a problem.

Pretty stuck now.

Thanks for any suggestions.
