[mmaSunshine]

when i test on virtual device ,it's run normally.but when i test in my phone ,it can't runin google assistant ,and the assistant remind me "soory,can't find it".the process i make sure: 1.change the application id in my own. 2.upload the apk to google play console. 3.make sure the same account in google play console,Android Studio,google assistant in test device. 4.make sure the google is latest vision. 5.deleted actions preview and updated again from AATT.(App Actions Test Tool) and then i looking at the logcat for the exact Intent that Assistant is trying to call. and i see the package name is not the package name i set . how can i address this issue.

i also have a question.i want run this demo on Android TV,but when i use AATT and run ,it remind "no app to process".i wonder know if the apk can called by google assistant on TV

It's possible that your actions.xml and AndroidManifest.xml have an inconsistency. Could you upload them and remove any sensitive package data?

Before I upload apk to google play console,I cmment the <meta-data android:name="com.google.android.actions" android:resource="@xml/actions" /> and then generate the signed apk which I upload to google play console. Also I change the package name in my own.In my project, the action.xml and AndroidManifest.xml as follows:

AndroidManifest.xml

@taycaldwell @skimarxall @adamkoch @dzuluaga when I ensure the locale was en-US in my phone，the app is called normal via google assistant, and now I wonder know if the sample can called via google assistant on android TV,when I test via AATT,the TV has a toast "no application can handle this action".but the Android TV support google assistant.or there have any difference between Google for Android TV and phone. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for inquiring about App Actions on Android TV. App Actions are currently available on devices that run Google Search App. Stay tuned, will keep this thread posted.

I have the same problem. I tests via App Actions Test Tools the android TV has a toast "You don't have an app that can do this".

I also created an app for testing Custom Intents, everything works correctly, but the Google Assistant won't close. The assistant does not close with the back button, you have to press the home button and close the application together with the assistant. What could be the problem? actions.xml

<?xml version ="1.0" encoding ="utf-8"?>
<actions>
    <action
        intentName="custom.actions.intent.OPEN_APP_FEATURE"
        queryPatterns="@array/feature_queries">
        <parameter
            name="action"
            type="https://schema.org/Text" />
        <parameter
            name="text"
            type="https://schema.org/Text" />

        <fulfillment urlTemplate="https://safarov.page.link/open{?item_action,item_text}">
            <parameter-mapping
                intentParameter="action"
                urlParameter="item_action" />
            <parameter-mapping
                intentParameter="text"
                urlParameter="item_text" />
        </fulfillment>
    </action>
</actions>

AndroidManifest.xml

<intent-filter
    android:autoVerify="true"
    tools:targetApi="m">
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

    <data
        android:host="safarov.page.link"
        android:scheme="https" />
</intent-filter>

Same problem here with Android TV. Is there any plan for supporting app actions on Android TV? It would be a nice way to extend the access to application features...

I was able to get it working on a TV box with Android (not Android TV) but I think that this could be available in this OS too...

Thanks for the info!
