ESP32 Forum

Hello! I've been experimenting with voice control and GVA with Rainmaker however the path has not been too smooth. e.g. Google documentation suggests that esp.device.garage-door should respond to 'open' and 'closed' but with a power parameter, I can only make it respond to 'on' and 'off'.

The example at: https://rainmaker.espressif.com/docs/3rd-party.html suggests that Alexa will respond to custom device and parameter types. Is this also true for GVA? My attempts suggest not.

Grateful for any insight into how to get GVA to respond to the correct verbs - asking Google to 'turn the gate on' seems somewhat ridiculous

GVA does not support custom devices and controls as cleanly as Alexa does. However, for garage door opener, can you try adding esp.param.garage-position? We will update the Standard Types List with appropriate information soon.

Thanks Piyush,

That worked perfectly - as usual - Why I didn't see that first time round escapes me - as always, grateful for your support.

Thx

John
