Skill Response Error

Open mikevocalz opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

When i follow the directions i get: "There was a problem with the requested skill's response".

The documentation for creating a new skill is also outdated. Some things within the instructions have changed within both consoles.

Can you verify that the lambda works correctly (ie. doesn't throw any errors) if you make a test invocation from the Lambda console? If everything works correctly you should see a 200 response that includes a valid skill response JSON payload.

Common skill errors are related to permissions, or using an old NodeJS runtime. Please make sure the role you've associated with the skill lambda is permitted access to cloudwatch logs and dynamodb, per the instructions.

You mentioned the instructions are out of date. Can you please let us know which section is out of date?
