I don't get it... I made the HelloIntent intent saved and built the model and updated the skill service code as shown, but when testing in the alexa simulator with -tell space facts hello- I only get a space fact. I even made a HelloRques Test to test the skill service...
-request-: -
-type-: -IntentRequest-,
[...]
-intent-: -
-name-: -HelloIntent-,
-confirmationStatus-: -NONE-
-
-
...which runs succesfully with the following response:
--
-version-: -1.0-,-
-response-: --
-outputSpeech-: --
-type-: -SSML-,-
-ssml-: -Hello--
--
-,-
-userAgent-: -ask-node/2.0.0 Node/v8.10.0-,-
-sessionAttributes-: ---

Need to know if there is a way to create a skill have Alexa answer incoming calls that are not being created on the Alexa app. My hold family loves the Alexa Show and all products. We have Alexa in all rooms of the house. My wife is quadriplegic no use arms and hands hole body. She really enjoys Alexa. A app. that takes incoming call on her cell phone and transfers them to Alexa System so she can answer. I Hope I make myself clear, she missing a lot of calls because she cant answer them. Can reach me on You Tube or Face Book. Would like a reply from anyone who might help me with this skill.

This course is great for beginners and as a refresher course for those with a little more experience! We have published Skills and consider ourselves to be reasonably knowledgeable about Alex. I was searching to get a specific question answered and decided to watch your Alexa 101 video, and I am so glad I did! It put the big things about Alexa in better perspective, and I learned so many valuable little things which will simplify our development efforts. Thank you!!!

Your video is good, unfortunately it is not for beginner. Can't you make a video where you start at the beginning? I wanted to do a simple skill. You ask Alexa a few questions and you get the appropriate answer that you have entered.
But it would be important to see a step by step guide.
I know that you can find something about blueprints. Amazon, but that's not how you learn it.
Is there a video that will teach you these steps?

Hi Steve, I seem to run in an error where my intent envokes something not in the backend code, alexa still responds to it with something random off the internet! For example: i have configured -get me a fact- to an intent having a certain set of procedure to follow through the backend, so why does alexa sometimes give the results i expect while other times just something random off the net!!??

nice video for beginners who wish to learn alexa skill sets. I need help that I want to use confirmation dialog directive and the lambda function should have a control over it. Furthermore, is there any possiblities to invoke Custom Intents programatically via aws lambda function.
Please provide the URLs to learn more about advanced dialog directives.
Thanks in advance.

ok I have been on Amazon help for at least 2 weeks now. Problem when I go to skills on my phone and open up skills. it freezes up and shortly after that kicks me off. I App works fine on my phone, but not on skills. My phone is a Smasung. J7 . Is there anything I can do? working long hours with Amazon and they cannot figure it out. Can you give me some ideas what to do?
reply

My current issue is that when I leave my home I'd tell Alexa to initiate home shutdown sequence (like switching off the lights and AC) via my Vera Z-wave hub and to arm my Blink cameras separately.
So I need this to integrate both skills in a single voice command.
The same goes when I come home. Thus, power up everything and disarm my security cameras.

I know about saltwater fish.
I want to set up a skill about how to set up a saltwater tank.
In the invitation do people always have to say, alexa open how to start a saltwater tank? Or can that be two different things.
What would be the best invocation name for when people have other questions about fish and corals

hey, we have a requirement to create a task in our task system when a user requests to create a task.Can we have a web service call triggered from Alexa skill to our system to create the task into our system? Can you demonstrate a simple skill which calls a web service. Also can we push notifications to alexa from our system ?
