  I think you can use it without skill this way:

  My Pro 8-zones will be delivered tomorrow, and I just found out the Alexa skill is not available for Italy. :(

  If the official method does not work, and SmartThings ("ST") is available in Italy, there may be an alternative solution for you to try. I have the 1st generation HD12 so my firmware version is lower than the minimum required for the official integration. However, I can control all my zones from ST, and can therefore expose them to Alexa as ST devices. Doing so allows me to control the zones via Alexa... It is not direct control, as it requires the ST cloud, but it works.

  Ciao Alex. :)

  I don't use ST. I chose Hubitat as my automation hub, and unfortunately it doesn't support RainMachine, but it supports Rachio.
  
  Thanks for your kind words, I hope you and your family are ok. Stay safe.

  Saluti,

  Alessandro

  Finally a developer made a driver for RM and my automation hub (Hubitat Elevation): https://community.hubitat.com/t/rainmachine-integration/1978/21

  So now I have RM integrated with Alexa, without waiting for the official skill to be developer by RM. :)

  BTW: same thing can be done with other automation hubs: Home Assistant, SmartThings, etc. they already support RM.
