+title: "Using Piper TTS in automations"
+---
+
+This procedure shows you how to create a text-to-speech {% term action %}. For this, we use our local text-to-speech engine, Piper, and the media player {% term service %}. Home Assistant can then speak to you over your media player as part of an {% term automation %}.
+
+1. Go to **{% my automations title="Settings > Automations & Scenes" %}**, and select **Create automation**.
+1. Select **Create new automation**, then **Add action**.
+1. From the drop-down menu, select **Play media** and select the media player you want to use for this automation.
+ 
+1. Select **Pick media**, then, select **Text-to-speech**.
+ 
+1. To use fully local text-to-speech processing, select **Piper**.
+ 
+1. Enter the text you want to hear for this automation.
+ 
+1. Your text-to-speech action is now ready to be used in your script or automation.
+ 
+1. Save your action.
+1. If you want, you can edit this service in YAML.
+
+ ```yaml
+ service: media_player.play_media
+ target:
+ entity_id: media_player.m5stack_atom_echo_a61920
