Trigger Alexa Voice via Webhooks

Hello,

is there a possibility to create a Skill that triggers by webhooks and then makes Alexa say something?


To be precise: I want Alexa to tell me when the Humidity in my room is too high which I track via a Raspberry Pi and save via Thingspeak (which can send POST webhooks).


Greetings

The Virtual Buttons skill can do what you want through the use of Alexa Routines.
