Entity Resolution stopped Working

Hey there!

Since yesterday I have some issues with an experimental skill I build for scientific purposes.

Apparently the entity resolution stopped working from one moment to the other without me changing a single character of code ?! Any ideas?

Searching for the problem, I so far figured out that an error is caused when referencing to the resolution status by:

if (handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request.intent.slots.preferenceAttribute.resolutions.resolutionsPerAuthority[0].status.code === 'ER_SUCCESS_MATCH') {
//DO STUFF
}

Any ideas on that? Appreciate your help!!

Just came across this myself. Amazon suddenly seems to be providing an additional resolution type so having the hardcoded zero index there will no longer work. You'll have to iterate over the `resolutionsPerAuthority` array to check for any resolution with an ERR_SUCCESS_MATCH.
