Alexa unsupported devices

I communicate between Alexa and Hubitat using virtual motion sensors defined in Hubitat. This has been working fine, and all of my Alexa routines are fine using these devices. However, I just tried to create a new routine in Alexa, and it says "This device is not currently supported".....even though I'm using most of them in routines which I created in the past.

Any ideas?

what type of device is it? Is the new one a motion sensor?

All of them are virtual motion sensors.

I just realized that I was doing something different. The new virtual motion sensor can be used as a trigger for the Alexa routine, but I was trying to set the sensor to detected in an action in the routine. That apparently isn't supported. So I changed it to a virtual switch, and I am able to turn the switch on/off in the alexa routine actions.
