Hope this is the right place to post this.

I was hoping to use C# to send announcements to Alexa.

I was able to get it to work using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) using the alexa_remote_control.sh command here:

https://github.com/adn77/alexa-remote-control/blob/master/alexa_remote_control.sh

This was detailed in the following post:

https://blog.loetzimmer.de/2021/09/alexa-remote-control-shell-script.html

You can issue a command like this:

./alexa_remote_control.sh -d Everywhere -e speak:'test announcement'

Which will send "test announcement" to the Everywhere alexa group.

You can also list all alexa devices this way:

./alexa_remote_control.sh -a

How do you do these similar actions using this library? Or am I looking for a different library (getting lost in all the nugets available out there for this and none of them seem similar to what this bash script is doing at first glance).

Thanks!
