MMM-MirrorMirrorOnTheWall - Alexa voice control to hide/show modules and display text/images

@joanaz Okay, thanks.

Do you have any idea why i got that error? The function runs in lambda when testing but in the logs i see that application ID is missing.

I made sure to put my app ID in the js script and update the lambda function.

It would get an error on 3s timeout so i set it to 15.

Ill try setting it up from scratch again and let you know how it goes. Thanks!

So i have to have alexapi?
Because I’m running this
https://github.com/alexa/alexa-avs-sample-app
Which works great you said earlier that it should work with that. Do I need both

[joanaz]

@Journeytojah do you still have the same error? I thought you got it running.

[joanaz]

@zman3 no you just need one Alexa app running. The Alexa sample app is perfectly fine.

So my orginal error was when I said Alex on the wall she would say there was a problem with the skill, I redid the version right before you added YouTube now when I say alexa on the wall it dings then freezes and I have to reboot the raspberry to get her to work again. I did Amazon’s hello world skill example and that one works fine. I’ll try your newest version again tonight after work.

@joanaz I’m cloning my SD card because i ran out of free space installing AlexaPi last night.

Will start fresh and let you know if it works.

Setting up the AWS IoT service… what support plan to choose? Basic is free right? I’m not paying $30 for developer. Is this even required?

[joanaz]

@lucallmon yes you must setup an AWS IoT device, it should be free, I don’t know where you are seeing basic or developer whatever.

You should see something like this

[Journeytojah]

@lucallmon afaik you get 12 months for free, you just need to use a credit card to register, and they “use” 1$ to confirm its your account, kinda like PayPal does.

@joanaz Now i get this error for the Lambda function… tried 3/10/15 seconds.

{
  "errorMessage": "2017-02-04T20:11:41.538Z 1b87c832-eb16-11e6-a281-33f14ad1f615 Task timed out after 15.00 seconds",
  "errorType": "Error"
}

This is the error in the Amazon Skill :
Lambda Response


1
The remote endpoint could not be called, or the response it returned was invalid.
