Example Node-RED flow

How it works

DuloNode acts as a bridge between Alexa and Node-RED. On every voice command received, it processes the request and generates a structured JSON payload that Node-RED can use to trigger automations or device actions.

Commands

Alexa, turn off the light.

Alexa, set the living room air conditioner to 21 degrees.

Alexa, close the garage door.
