Play Chime sounds on Ring Alarm Keypad

[daneedk]

Description

Hi, not really a feature request but more a question.

• I'd like to know if it's possible to play chime sounds on a Ring Keypad (either V1 or V2) through an API command.

Some background; I have developed an app (https://homey.app/en-gb/app/com.ring.security/Ring-Security/) for the Homey Home automation platform which enables users to add Ring Alarm Devices directly to Homey as Z-Wave devices (so without actually using the basestation). In that app I was able to make the Chime sounds (same as in an actual Ring Chime) available for the users.

I also developed an app (https://homey.app/en-gb/app/com.amazon.ring/Ring/) that makes the Doorbells and Cameras available in Homey using the ring-client-api package. Right now I'm working on making the Ring Alarm (devices) available in Homey and hope to be able to provide the users with the possibility to use their Keypads also as chimes.

Maybe someone has been able to figure this out already, if not well, it's not the end of the world ;)

Thanks!

It seems this is better asked in discussions vs being opened as an issue, as there is no issue to resolve here, thus I will convert this topic to a discussion.
