beam Integrations
100% free integrations with no subscriptions
Unlike other smart controllers & smart garage door openers on the market, there are no subscription fees when utilizing beam technology - capabilities like advanced Alexa API & routines, Apple Watch actions, and IFTTT applets.
Setup
Connecting beam with Amazon Alexa
In order to connect your Smart Controller to Alexa, follow these steps:
Open the beam Home App and navigate to My Account > Integrations > Amazon Alexa. Tap Continue.
Set your Pin Code and re-enter to confirm (if you’ve already set your Pin Code within your My Account settings, enter it now).
You’ll then be directed to the Alexa Companion App or Alexa Dashboard. Go to Skills and search for beam
Enable the beam Skill and enter your beam account email and password.
Choose Allow.
Ask Alexa “Alexa, ask beam if any of my doors are open.”
*Note: Alexa now requires that you provide a Pin Code any time you want to open a garage door using your voice.
