icon image cannot be uploaded with ask-cli

There is a problem to upload icon image when i am going to update public information in Alexa skill by using ask-cli...

When either smallIconUri or largeIconUri is inserted, ask deploy command failed by publishing below error message.

ask deploy -p default
-------------------- Update Skill Project --------------------
[Error]: Building skill schema failed

Does anyone can upload icon file via ask-cli?

Hi, thanks for posting. I am sorry it took a while to get to your question. Are you still facing this issue? I was able to update a skill with an icon using ask-cli. Here is the skill.json for reference:

{
  "manifest": {
    "publishingInformation": {
      "locales": {
        "en-GB": {
          "examplePhrases": [],
          "keywords": [],
          "name": "Sbrubbles",
          "smallIconUri": "https://s3.amazonaws.com/yaddayaddayadda"
        }
      },
      "isAvailableWorldwide": true,
      "distributionCountries": []
    },
    "apis": {
      "custom": {
        "endpoint": {
          "sourceDir": "lambda/custom"
        },
        "interfaces": [
          {
            "type": "RENDER_TEMPLATE"
          }
        ]
      }
    },
    "manifestVersion": "1.0"
  }
}

Is your skill.json similar to that?

Kind regards,

Barry

I am facing the similar issue when i activate the start beta test vis ask cli..

Call start-beta-test error.

Error code: 400

{
    "violations": [
        {
            "message": "The svg provided in the wordmarkLogo uri null in locale en-US could not be processed. Please check the provided svg and try again."
        }
    ]
}

I am not sure where wordmarklogo comes from . Do you guys have the schema any where to verify the skill manifest ?

Hello @nandu and sorry it took so long to reply to you.

Are you still facing this issue? If so, can you please share your manifest so I can take a better look?

If the image URLs is causing the issue. I found a simple hacky solution for time being.

goto your Alexa skill development portal and select distribution tab, in that upload both small and large icon. ( Do not press save ), and right click on the image and select open image in new tab and copy the image URL. now use this URL in the skill.json

Thank you @Muneef M for your suggestion.

You can also upload it to a S3 bucket and copy the URL for the file. Just make sure that the file is publicly available.

Regards,
Barry
