Hello,
I am currently facing the problem that my Safety Error Response does not work as expected. At least there is no reaction or a false reaction from Alexa like "Device is not responding..".
We planned to use the Safety Error Response in an async way. So in regards of the documentations:
https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/docs/alexa/device-apis/alexa-safety-errorresponse.html
https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/docs/alexa/device-apis/alexa-errorresponse.html
I expect that our payload needs to look like this:
{
"event":{
"header":{
"namespace":"Alexa.Safety",
"name":"ErrorResponse",
"messageId":"Unique identifier, preferably a version 4 UUID",
"correlationToken":"Opaque correlation token that matches the request",
"payloadVersion":"3"
},
"endpoint":{
"scope":{
"type":"BearerToken",
"token":"access-token-from-Amazon"
},
"endpointId":"Endpoint ID"
},
"payload":{
"type":"OBSTACLE_DETECTED",
"message":"There is an obstacle in the way."
}
}
}
In reality if I intercept the request against the Alexa Eventgateway it looks equal:
{
"headers":{
"Content-Type":[
"application/json"
],
"Authorization":[
"Basic Atza|TOKEN"
]
},
"body":{
"event":{
"header":{
"namespace":"Alexa.Safety",
"name":"ErrorResponse",
"messageId":"SOME_UUID",
"payloadVersion":"3",
"correlationToken":"MATCHING_CORRELATION_TOKEN"
},
"endpoint":{
"endpointId":"DEVICE_ID",
"scope":{
"type":"BearerToken",
"token":"Atza|TOKEN"
}
},
"payload":{
"type":"OBSTACLE_DETECTED",
"message":"There is an obstacle in the way."
}
}
}
}
My question is: Is it expected, that alexa says: "Device is not responding" instead of "Obstacle was detected, please check your garage" or something like this?
