Run an Alexa routine when you press the button
How this automation works
Automate Alexa routines based on your lighting activity. This Applet runs when your selected LightwaveRF light is switched off and sends an Alexa action trigger via mkZense to perform a routine. It's perfect for adding smart voice or automation sequences when lights go off.
