I have installed and reinstalled the app several times. But I do not have the notify.media_player, nor the tts.say service.

How do I get those two services? I have already tried to add them via yaml file without success.

Thanks,
Mike

The alexa_media notify service is notify.alexa_media as well as ones for each of your included echo devices
e.g. notify.alexa_media_bedroom_echo_dot_left, as well as notify.alexa_media_last_called.

Other services it adds are:
alexa_media.force_logout, alexa_media.update_last_called

The media_player services are:
media_player.clear_playlist
media_player.join
media_player.media_next_track
media_player.media_pause
media_player.media_play
media_player.media_play_pause
media_player.media_previous_track
media_player.media_seek
media_player.media_stop
media_player.play_media
media_player.repeat_set
media_player.select_sound_mode
media_player.select_source
media_player.shuffle_set
media_player.toggle
media_player.turn_off
media_player.turn_on
media_player.unjoin
media_player.volume_down
media_player.volume_mute
media_player.volume_set
media_player.volume_up

The `alexa_media` `notify` service is `notify.alexa_media` as well as ones for each of your included echo devices e.g. `notify.alexa_media_bedroom_echo_dot_left`, as well as `notify.alexa_media_last_called`.

I have no notify service at all, under any name. Sent from my T-Mobile 5G Device

The Dev tools > ACTIONS template for notify.alexa_media suggests filling with this example:

action: notify.alexa_media
data:
  message: The garage door has been open for 10 minutes.
  title: Your Garage Door Friend
  target: platform specific
  data: platform specific

TTS would require it to be like this:

action: notify.alexa_media
data:
  message: The garage door has been open for 10 minutes.
  target: media_player.office_echo_dot_left
  data: 
    type:  tts

or use:

action: notify.alexa_media_office_echo_dot
data: 
  message: The garage door has been open for 10 minutes.
  data:
    type: tts

Multiple devices can be specified with the former:

action: notify.alexa_media
data:
  message: The garage door has been open for 10 minutes.
  target: 
    - media_player.office_echo_dot
    - media_player.kitchen_echo_dot
    - media_player.living_room_echo_dot
  data: 
    type:  tts

It sounds like you're missing the basic configuration.yaml key notify:.
notify: is included when you specify default_config:

Daniel,I've created a new clean install of home assistant with minimal integrations this far. I just added Alexa Media Player 4.13.7, and I still have no notify service. My configuration.yaml has default.config: and notify: at the beginning. The only other entries are frontend: and 4 basic !include lines.Any ideas? MikeSent from my T-Mobile 5G Device

What is the status of Alexa Media Player Integration?
It should look something like this:

Are you using 4.13.7?
What do your debug logs show?

FYI, YAML configuration is being deprecated soon so please use the UI to add the integration.
Also, do not use v4.13.8. In HACS, (re)download v4.13.7.
