question

My skill seems to be working in the Service Simulator, but is only partially working on the Echo itself. 1. When I use a phrase to invoke the LaunchRequest ('Alexa tell MySkill') - it works on both Echo and in the Service Simulator 2. When I use a phrase that matches my Utterances ('Alexa tell MySkill hello') - the Service Simulator requests the correct Intent and receives the appropriate response. However, the Echo always says 'Sorry I didn't understand the question I heard'. 3. Very oddly, if I use a random phrase, not in my Utterances ('Alexa, tell MySkill blah') = the Service Simulator does exactly the same as step 2. It's as if the Utterance Schema is being ignored. I have a very simple Schema, which is as follows. [code] INTENT SCHEMA { "intents": [ { "intent": "HelloWorldIntent", "slots": [ { "name": "Time", "type": "AMAZON.TIME" }, { "name": "Date", "type": "AMAZON.DATE" } ] } ] } [/code] My Utterances File has been stripped down to a single line for testing (not that it is making any difference!) HelloWorldIntent hello I am using IBM's BlueMix to host the server and Node.js (using Node-Red). As such my development endpoint is a subdomain of a domain that has a wildcard certificate from a certificate authority. All the boxes in the development environment are ticked green. Here's what I'm seeing when I run 'Alexa tell MySkill hello' in the Service Simulator. I get the same if I change the 'hello' to something that is not in my utterance file' Server Request [code] { "session": { "sessionId": "SessionId.20377591-1401-44ea-b271-1330212adca9", "application": { "applicationId": "amzn1.echo-sdk-ams.app.8e68cf40-b244-4ddb-a63c-96d976555c5e" }, "user": { "userId": "amzn1.echo-sdk-account.AGMXOPZO3LUJPV3F3D5OSYKGNEPWFXR5NJJNR6TMTNDXFJTE2T4OA" }, "new": true }, "request": { "type": "IntentRequest", "requestId": "EdwRequestId.df79e9b0-52db-4362-8455-5088325130a7", "timestamp": "2016-02-22T00:30:25Z", "intent": { "name": "HelloWorldIntent", "slots": { "Time": { "name": "Time" }, "Date": { "name": "Date" } } } } } [/code] Server Response [code] { "version": "1.0", "response": { "outputSpeech": { "type": "PlainText", "text": "This is a response to Intent Request" }, "card": null, "reprompt": null, "shouldEndSession": true }, "sessionAttributes": null } [/code]
