Alexa Not Adding Devices...

Post by ebaugh »

I've been having a tough time adding devices to Alexa from a Z-way.me setup.

I'm able to add devices to the Raspberry Pi + Zway Razzberry shield.
I'm able to get them to show up in Homekit using the Homekit Gate.

I had a few connected to Alexa, but then it stopped adding (I've been migrating my Zwave devices from a Wink hub to this new setup)
So, I tried turning on/off the Alex plugin. No difference.
Tried turning on/off the skill. No difference.

Confirmed that remote access works. (that took some tweaking....it had worked before, but I've confirmed right now that it connects now)
Verified that I have the correct credentials as part of this.

Removed the few things that had shown up in Alexa (thru all of this they kept working... I just couldn't get anything new in).

Removed all of the z-way devices from Alexa. Rebooted numerous times during all of this.

Latest state: Rebooted. Verified that find.me-zway.me works. Tried disabling and re-enabling skill one more time.

Still no luck.

What's the magic set of steps to get things working again????

Alexa app changed at around 3.0.4
I had to reselect all of my Alexa devices on the Voice Assistant page.

THANKS! That fixed it!

Had no idea that menu item existed... Wonder why this isn't referenced from the Alexa app.
Another weirdness of the UI...
