Lock/Unlock Door

In this article you will find a short description how to control a door lock.

Can you please extend the documentation for this? With the given information this is hardly possible.

Apparently the underscore is missing for the Native Control value.

Currently I am so far that I can lock the data point. But unlocking it does not work.

Äähm ... unlock is ot supported by Alexa at all normally because of security reasons. So supported is "lock" and "status". What exactly is missing in the docs?

Oh. Okay. But I had read that you can do that too. You have to set a switch in the device (in the Alexa App). Then you can also unlock the device with a voice PIN.

Also, I think there is a mistake in the description on github. "native.CONTROL VALUE" should be "native.CONTROL_VALUE".

Principle Alexa support this, for this only the properties "unlock by voice" or "unlock by app" have to be set. These properties are missing in ioBroker SmartLock.

Ah okay. Then this is an feature request?

I think these new properties are only supported by Skill v3 or ?! So yes it is a feature request
