question

Hello,

Thanks for posting.

The first thing that I'd recommend checking is that the account that you're testing with is set to the India region so that it can successfully discover devices since your skill has an English (IN) locale.

For help changing this setting on your account, please direct your inquiries to:

Please let us know if you're still running into any issues.

Hello Roy

Sorry for the delay in responding. Still i have the same issue. I have checked my developer account country setting it's still pointing to india. Also my Alexa skill need to support only English IN. I have configured my AWS console to EU Ireland. But still i don't know what i have done wrong. This is my 4th alexa skill submission . Previous 3 were got approved but they too had the same issue when creating indian skill. Previous skills account names were Voiceskills@wisilica.com And smart.light@samsung.com. For those skills the issue was we were giving same skill name for all region skill and we reported this issue with amazon.

Also i have one more issue. When i change my kindle setting to india i am not able to see my Dev skill in alexa web app. https://alexa.amazon.in/spa/index.html#skills/your-skills/?ref-suffix=ysa_gw.

Hello,

Are you testing from the same user account that you created the skill with? If not, you can invite additional accounts to beta test the skill from the distribution tab of your skill within the Developer Console.

yes i am using the same developer account. Now i changed my developer account kindle settings to amazon.in and tried login to alexa web app, now my skill is not getting listed in Dev skills tab.

Hello Roy

Hello,

I would recommned checking to see if your Lambda function is timing out. Your backend has a maximum of 8 seconds to respond to a Device Discovery request, however the quicker the better.
