How do I generate speech with ElevenLabs?

Short answer: You can text to speech in ElevenLabs by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the ElevenLabs Text to Speech action to a workflow, map its 6 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.
