      I’ve updated my readmes and code, you can do a git pull to get the latest files.

        @joanaz I have AlexaPi working great right now. I’m a bit reluctant to stop it and try something else right now. Can you post a video of how it’s currently working?

          Okay, i will try again with the new instructions.

          Do you have any advice regarding names for the certs or other names that would need changing?

            @lucallmon Where do I say you have to use something else? You definitely need AlexaPi to get it working.

              @Journeytojah I think names do not matter, but make sure the names in MirrorMirror.js match with your certs. I called my AWS IoT Device “MagicMirror”.

                @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!

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

                      @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.
