Any plans for Ring doorbell integration?

Success! Thanks @stephack. I now have one less dependency on ST. I actually wrote a new Hubitat Virtual Motion Driver (with Switch Capability) to make the Ring Motion events show up as a Hubitat Motion/Switch device. It automatically turns off the 'switch' and sets 'motion' to inactive after 3 seconds.

BTW - in my Alexa Routine, I was able to select which Alexa devices I wanted a spoken phrase played on. Doing so, I was able to have Alexa to say "There is someone at the front door" on just a single Echo device.

Here's the driver code in case anyone is interested. It is really pretty trivial.
