@Byron-Trantham, sorry about the extra work but I'm glad you have a solution now.

@jbeckmantx, using the word ON with the normal google action ( as opposed to the newer TRIGFERcmd Smart Home action) has often been a problem because the word ON is used as the delimiter between the trigger name and the computer name (calculator on downstairs). I've tried to train Google's AI to handle that but it's still an intermittent issue.

If you haven't tried the TRIGGERcmd Smart Home action, you really should. That's the best solution for thing you turn on and off.

it's ok after change tokken

Revised and re-posted here.

@dougcolt, sorry for the trouble, but you seem to have figured it out.

Both computers and commands have a "voice" field. Both voice fields need to be populated, except for your default computer's voice field (although it doesn't hurt to populate it). By default, if you have one computer, that computer is your default computer.

@carlinhos, I see you haven't filled in the computer's voice field for the two laptops.

The TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill will only create devices if your computer and command have the voice field filled in.

The exception to that rule is your default computer because your default computer's commands get Alexa device names that don't include the computer name (ie just "calculator" instead of "calculator on laptop").

@Russ Thank you very much

@Ryan694, my code is different from yours, but after looking here, I think this might work:

const ExitHandler = { canHandle(handlerInput) { const request = handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request; return request.type === 'IntentRequest' && (request.intent.name === 'AMAZON.StopIntent'); }, handle(handlerInput) { return handlerInput.responseBuilder .speak('bye!') .shouldEndSession(true) .getResponse(); }, };

@killwa91, have you tried specifying the full path to your scripts or executables?

So instead of your command being:

myscript.sh

Make it:

/usr/local/bin/myscript.sh

Also, about the forum having a separate account - I didn't write the forum software. I just installed and configured it, so it would be very difficult to do that integration.

@Josiah-Richards, yes, please do add more clarity. I think the bookmark URL's might solve part of this at least, but how do you see it working?

Should there be a way to issue a special token with access to run specific trigger names on specific computers? Then you'd give that token to your external users / customers?

You're welcome @dougcolt!

Thank you so much for the reply and for the awesome software in general. I'm getting a new PC tomorrow so I had to revisit this topic and confirm this is still the case. I think I have my evening planned now setting up the new virtual switches!

@Russ said in Run bash / .sh file:

bash t.sh

Your amazing! Thank you VERY much!

FYI, I did a Youtube video on using TRIGGERcmd with Node-RED:

@Russ Thanks for the clarification. That was my understanding as well - to share TRIGGERcmd for all, either everybody has to use Voice Match or nobody can use it. Unfortunately, the children really want to use the Voice Match (required to teach Google Home important things such as names of our cats etc) while both me and my wife are strictly against Voice Match for us. That means that the children could share TriggerCMD but no solution for the adults. And we'd need TriggerCNS exactly mainly for the adults...

I understand it's a relatively specific situation though, so probably no solution will be available. I was hoping for something similar to Spotify (that works also for non-VoiceMatch members of the household) but I understand it may be difficult to achieve. Thanks for your efforts anyway!

Update All of the "on" commands give me the same error. All of the "off" commands work.

@Erik-Dominguez, I didn't even know Microsoft had added an ssh command to Windows. That's awesome!

Please try prefixing your ssh command with start, like this:

start ssh user@10.1.2.3

It worked for me.

@al-mastro, awesome. You're welcome. I'm glad that worked.
