To get started, choose a device template that matches your device type. Each template recommends a set of Alexa interfaces, a display category, and example voice utterances. Customize any template by adding or removing interfaces to suit your specific device. Every template includes the top-level Alexa interface and the Alexa.EndpointHealth interface as base requirements. The display category controls the icon and placement of your device in the Alexa app. The Required for WWA column shows which interfaces are required for Works with Alexa (WWA) certification. After you choose a template, report your device’s display category and capabilities in your discovery response. For details, see About Alexa Discovery. WWA certification requirements vary by device type. For more details, see Requirements for Specific Device Types.
