Control Cortana
I haven't been successful programming a script, but it seems many of my issues would be solved by making a request to Google home which activates a script to make a request to Cortana. Cortana already has many of the capabilites I want to access for the computer (spotify or music app control). Can anyone help with this programming?
Re: Control Cortana
What have you already tried in terms of scripting?
Can you provide a concrete example of what you want to do thru Cortana?

Re: Control Cortana
Not sure scripting is necessary, but i failed in several attemps. Id really like it to activate the windows search function and type, "Hey Cortana $" So for example, IF (hey google tell my computer to play music) THEN pushbullet card (opens window key, types in search box, Hey Cortana play music). Then cortana will open spotify or what ever music app its designated to use and autoplay a song, should work with next song, or song of choice. Ive seen other options but they dont work as smooth as native cortana control. Any help with this solution is appreciated.
Re: Control Cortana
ok, you should be able to do it using the attached push2run card and .vbs script
( in the example I put the corntana.vbs script file in a directory called c:\temp )
You would then say something like: OK Google tell my computer to ask Cortana to $
However, you should be able to shorten this by creating a new IFTTT applet and fiddling with it to allow you to say something like:
OK Google ask Cortana to $
