Systems and methods for device control by a natural language processing system are disclosed. A user may desire to utilize a voice-enabled device to associate an accessory device with a hub device without having to utilize third-party software associated with the accessory device and/or the hub device. The user may provide a user utterance to associate the accessory device with the hub device. Audio data corresponding to the user utterance may be analyzed and utilized to generate and send directive data to a third-party remote system to transition the hub device to a join mode. Upon association completion, audio may be output confirming that the association has been established successfully.

Device configuration by natural language processing system

Systems and methods for usage-based device naming and grouping are disclosed. For example, trigger events that indicate when a device should be renamed, added to a device group, and/or added to a routine may be determined. Usage data representing usage of the device may be received and utilized to determine if a trigger event occurs. When a trigger event occurs, a recommendation for renaming, grouping, etc. may be determined and sent to a user device. Upon acceptance of the recommendation, the device may be renamed, grouped, and/or added to a routine.
