Use SmartThings to Control Alexa Wi-Fi & Bluetooth Devices

Even though you are not able use the SmartThings App to view or control most WiFi or Bluetooth devices which are paired with Alexa, alternatively, you can control these device indirectly using a virtual switch in SmartThings. The SmartThings virtual switch can be used in a Alexa routine as a Alexa device trigger to power on your Alexa compatible WiFi or Blue device. Let me show you how I setup this capability using Brian Pierron's Simulated Alexa Switch.
