Frequently asked questions
What Alexa-connected devices are supported by this API?
The Alexa Smart Properties API supports: smart lights (on/off, brightness, color), smart plugs and switches, thermostats (mode and temperature monitoring), temperature sensors, Echo devices and speakers (volume control), security sensors, and other Alexa-connected endpoints. Each device exposes specific features (power, brightness, speaker, thermostat, etc.) that can be queried and controlled.
How do I get an OAuth 2.0 access token for the Alexa API?
Visit the Alexa Developer Console and create a Smart Home Skill. Set up Login with Amazon (LWA) credentials in your Amazon Developer account. Complete the OAuth 2.0 authorization flow to obtain an access token. The token must be refreshed periodically as it expires after a set duration.
Can I control devices in different rooms or properties?
Yes! The API returns all devices across all properties and rooms in your Alexa Smart Properties account. Use list_alexa_devices to see all devices with their room assignments, then use each device's unique endpoint ID to control them individually. You can also reassign devices to different rooms using the update_device_room action.
What's the difference between deregister and forget a device?
Deregister removes the device from your Alexa Smart Properties account but keeps it available for re-discovery. The device itself remains configured. Forget completely removes the device from Alexa — it will need to be re-discovered and set up again as if it were a new device. Use deregister for temporary removal and forget for permanent removal.
How does Google ADK connect to MCP servers?
Import the MCP toolset class and pass the server URL. ADK discovers and registers all tools automatically, making them available to your agent's tool-use loop.
Can ADK agents use multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Declare multiple MCP tool providers in your agent configuration. ADK merges all tool schemas and the agent can call tools from any server in a single turn.
Which Gemini models work best with MCP tools?
Gemini 2.0 Flash and Pro models both support function calling required for MCP tools. Flash is recommended for latency-sensitive use cases, Pro for complex reasoning.
