Is there a way to ask alexa on echo dot the current measurement?

If you wanna stay on the quite restricted possibilities of Alexa, you might have success with a voice command triggered script that outputs exactly what you want to have via TTS. The problem here is not the addin, it's the limits of Alexa and by the way, Google, too. If you look into the Voice assistant settings you can see that there is a big "Not Supported" under the trigger for the sensor data telling us that the Assistant has no idea what to do with these values and thus you need to do some trickery or you switch to Assist. Assist can do crazy things with all the sensor data you pass to it. Mine not just tells me my current values, but even tells me if they are a reason for concern or not.
