Arlo BABY Alexa Start Motion Monitor

Hello I have the Arlo Baby and I would like to say "Alexa Turn on Montion and Audio Alerts"  I tried with IFTTT but it does not appear to be a choice.

 

Is there something that I am doing wrong?

darkiss,

 

Take a look here for more information on how you can use Alexa with your Arlo Baby: How can I use Amazon devices with my Arlo cameras?

Great thanks however that functioanly is extremely limited.

 

The Arlo product does not have this ability at all that appears it should be a basic thing to have for the device.  

 

Is there no plan to add the ability to enable/disable the alerting with voice command?  This can be done with IFTTT and/or Alexa but it is simply not something that you currently offer from reading your link

This isn't something available with the current Arlo - Alexa integration. I don't have any information on this feature becoming available in the future.

Okay would be kind enought to reach out to Arlo developers to see if there is API that I can use for this and/or when this will be available for me to use?

I'll second the request for access to the API - so that if the company isn't going to develop it, let the community develop it.
