Smart Home Oven Guide

action.devices.types.OVEN - Interaction with ovens involves the ability to bake or broil at certain temperatures. The physical temperature inside the oven differs as the oven is heating, so this may also be monitored. The oven has a cook time that limits the duration of baking.

This type indicates that the device gets the Oven icon and some related synonyms and aliases.

Ovens have type-based grammar for action.devices.traits.OnOff and action.devices.traits.TemperatureControl:
  • If the device supports OnOff, Preheat the oven will send an action.devices.commands.OnOff command.
  • If the device supports TemperatureControl, Preheat the oven to 350 degrees will send a command to set the oven to that temperature.

Device capabilities

Refer to the corresponding trait documentation for implementation details, such as attributes and states that your service should support, and how to build EXECUTE and QUERY responses.

Required traits

These traits and commands are required, if applicable to your device. If your device does not support these traits, enter the error code of functionNotSupported in a QUERY or EXECUTE response. See Errors and exceptions for more info.

These traits are recommended, if applicable to your device. However, you are free to mix and match from all available traits to best match your existing product functionality.

Quality requirements

  • Latency: must be less than or equal to 3000ms.
  • Reliability: must be more than or equal to 97%.

Example device: Simple oven

This section contains example intent payloads representing a common "Oven" based on the device type and traits above. If you add or remove traits in your implementation, modify your responses accordingly to reflect those changes.
