Alexa Plus
-
Recently upgrade to "Alexa Plus". now the "old" method command "alexa ask trigger command to run…" results in alexa saying:
"trigger command isn't supported on alexa plus yet. you can still access it on the alexa app under skills and games"
is this a known issue?
edit: apparently it sometimes works as expected, and sometimes doesn't (with above response)

That's interesting @gajahduduk. I'll need to do some research. I didn't know about this issue until you mentioned it here, so thank you for telling me.
As always, I recommend you switch to the TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill unless you have a specific use-case for the Trigger Command skill.

@Russ I look forward to you getting it worked out. needless to say, thank you enormously for your contribution and continuing efforts.
I have both the Smart Home skill and the original Trigger Command skill installed. That hadn't been a problem, should it be?
I do of course have a specific use-case: much of what I want to do (such as getting info on the current music playing) requires the output, not just an on / off switch.
I wonder if it is possible to add that functionality to the new skill?

@gajahduduk, ok - you're right you do have to use one the Trigger Command, TC, or TRIGGERcmd skill to hear the result of your command.
To answer your question about adding that to the new TRIGGERcmd Smart Home skill - no, it's not possible.
