The plugin, Voice Monkey, allows you to control your Alexa devices from within Indigo. It works with the Voice Monkey Amazon Alexa skill which has the ability to perform text-to-speech, play preset sounds, and execute Alexa routines on an Alexa Smart device such as an Echo or Echo Dot.
The Voice Monkey capabilities that the plugin supports are:.
- Execute a Alexa Routine
Perform Text-To-Speech
Play a preset sound (Chime, Doorbell, Air Horn, etc.)
Play a URL audio file (Dogs barking, etc.)
Play a URL audio File (Dogs barking, etc.) while performing Text-To-Speech
Ask a Prompted Yes/No Question, executing an Action Group based on the Yes, No, or No Response.(*the Alexa Plugin is a requirement)
All of these are "Pro" features of the Amazon Alexa Skill except for the ability to Execute a Alexa Routine. The "Pro" features btw are $6Per year.

With the non-Pro feature, (singular), you are limited to, if you want to call it a limit, triggering Alexa routines.
I shared some information about this skill last year in this thread. https://forums.indigodomo.com/viewtopic.php?f=138&t=25958
