- Search for Hubitat
- Tap enable on the Hubitat Elevation™ Alexa Skill
- The app will ask if you want it to discover your devices. After your devices are discovered, it will ask which devices you’d like to add. You can can them individually or all at once.
- Once your devices are discovered and added, you will be able to control them with your voice. Currently the only smart features Alexa is capable of controlling are on/off switches and dimmer levels. You can also go into the Amazon Echo Skill app in your Hubitat Web Interface at anytime to change or add the devices you would like to control via your Echo or Alexa compatible device.
