Alexa Voice Service for Pi

[xxLulaBelle]

@sdetweil Thank you very much, I will give this a try tomorrow. Is it worth doing it do you think?

[sdetweil]

@xxlulabelle depends on what you want/need

there will be errors, ignore them. the last command being successful is all that matters

[xxLulaBelle]

@xxlulabelle Grand, thank you :)

@xxlulabelle When I go through the MMM-awesome-alexa module, I can get to the part where I put in the Amazon Voice Service ID and secret but when it asks me for the Allowed Return URL I input http://192.168.0.108:5050/code, I can’t remember where I got this from, think it was a YT video months ago, when I go to open up the link they give to get the authentication code I get an error page. Any ideas?

[sdetweil]

@xxlulabelle should have used localhost:5050

the system needs to get to a machine…

[xxLulaBelle]

@sdetweil I put this in http://localhost:5050/code and it says Invalid, please enter your redirect URI?

[sdetweil]

@xxlulabelle weird, i use this

http://localhost:5500/alexa_auth

I prefer … simple thing sorry :D

http://localhost:5500/alexa_auth

I just tried this and get the same error, could it be something else I am doing wrong?
:see-no-evil_monkey:

[sdetweil]

@xxlulabelle I put http://localhost in the allowed origins field

[xxLulaBelle]

@sdetweil said in Alexa Voice Service for Pi:

http://localhost

I have these four in the Allowed Origins Fields:
https://192.168.0.108:5050
https://192.168.0.108:5050
https://localhost:5050
https://localhost:5050

In the Allowed Return URLs I have the same four but with /code at the end of each.
Again, I can’t remember exactly where I got this info, was a video on YT from memory.

@sdetweil Changed to this and input same, I still get that error code. I give up :see-no-evil_monkey:

[xxLulaBelle]

@sdetweil Thanks so much for all your help and your patience with my lack of knowledge. Much appreciated. :)

[sdetweil]

@xxlulabelle sorry, don’t think we are talking the same…

so you run the auth program, and it pops up a blah blah wants to access your devicename
and u say Allow, then an error appears, can’t reach xyz…

and in the URL string is the code=djf;asjfgjae;gk;FGJADJFG’AJFDGL’K AFDJG LAFDJG L’ADFKJ

the thing after the code= IS the code u are supposed to copy

‘djf;asjfgjae;gk;FGJADJFG’AJFDGL’K AFDJG LAFDJG L’ADFKJ’

using my made up junk above

i have a different app on a different platform that implements a server at the return url and captures the code= value for you… so none of this trouble
