+The Amazon echo device will request the camera stream from Home Assistant. The Home Assistant URL must be accessible from the network the Amazon echo device is connected to and must support HTTPS on port 443 with a certificate signed by [an Amazon approved certificate authority](https://ccadb-public.secure.force.com/mozilla/IncludedCACertificateReport). These requirements can be satisfied with with Home Assistant Cloud, or LetsEncrypt/DuckDNS.

 Single, double, and triple set-point thermostats are supported. The temperature value from the thermostat will also be exposed at a separate [temperature sensor](#sensor).
