Trying to finish setup of the module.

I’m in the helper config, and when I get to the point of supplying a return URL I enter:
https://localhost:3000/authresponse
But terminal tells me that’s an invalid URL.

I’ve put https://localhost:3000/authresponse as my return URL and https://localhost:3000/ as my authorized URL on the Amazon developer site. What I am I doing wrong here?

Bump on this question, still can’t get past the local url section. Any help would be appreciated.

@Canterrain follow this guide.

It worked for me.

@sdetweil finally I could hear the sound output of Alexa in my mirror!

However for some reason it plays like if in slow motion. :persevering_face:

@Cr4z33
Oddly that’s not working for me either. Maybe I’m doing something wrong?

What should I be using for the Device ID? I’ve been using the product ID, but maybe that’s wrong.

Cr4z33

@Canterrain no that is correct. ;)

Well dang. I’m doing something wrong here. Whether I use the helper config or the tool above, I get a broken error page.

And I know an error page is expected, but it’s not a long url with a code in it.
It’s like… amazon.com/wpa

and that’s it.

Was the right choice “device with alexa built in” and “no companion app” ? I figure I must have done something wrong on the Amazon developer page, since that’s the part with no guide and it’s working for other people.

So does anyone actually have a step by step directions on how to set this up? Sorry i’m a huge noob, and I’m lost (which is probably due to the noob part). I do understand this is a difficult set up, but i’m kind of hoping there might be a detailed guide on this or even a youtube video (including how Amazon Developer should be set up).

EDIT:

I’m able to get to the auth request as most people, and I get the error: We’re sorry!
An error occurred when we tried to process your request. Rest assured, we’re already working on the problem and expect to resolve it shortly.

I understand this could either by my settings, or something on the amazon side, but has anyone gotten past this recently? Or is there another module I should be using?

First I’ve to say awesome work @dolanmiu ! I’ve installed as described in your documentation. For auto start I’m still using PM2 with the mm.sh script and can’t get the wake word to trigger. ALSA ist configured and recording. Any ideas what could be the problem? Do I have to get rid completely of PM2? Many thanks in advance for your help!

Cordetx

Can you please add the wake word “Mirror Mirror On The Wall”?

and of course in your normal regular guide…
i have testet my microphone and my speaker… everything is okay. but when i set up the config and a try tu say something… NOTHING works.
even with wireshark i dont see, that everything is trying to do something.

Blackhawk50000

Okay, little Update, why i think the module dont work.

I saw that the part:

rm -rf node_modules
npm install nan --save 
npm install node-pre-gyp@0.12.0 --save 
npm install 
npm run prepublish

throws some erros:


Found 2 errors.

npm ERR! code ELIFECYCLE
npm ERR! errno 2
npm ERR! snowboy@1.3.1 prepublish: `tsc --listFiles`
npm ERR! Exit status 2

so i editet the package.json and set up the typescript version ti 3.5.2 and gor this errors by npm run prepublish:

Hi @dolanmiu awesome job with the Alexa I must say!!

I have set it up however I think it’s behaving weird or I am missing some bits and pieces to make it work! I’ve added MMM-NowPlayingOnSpotify and google calendar however when I try to ask Alexa to add event on the calendar or to play Spotify it has no idea, what am I missing here, please let me know what logs I can provide to troubleshoot!

Cheers,
Vlatko
