The example phases are

      "examplePhrases": [
        "Alexa open Premium Facts Sample",
        "tell me a science fact",
        "buy an all access subscription"

but 1.Skills that allow customers to make in-skill purchases may not contain a call to action or inform the customer about how to purchase additional content within the skill example phrases. For example - “buy an all access subscription.”

Please remove the call to action from your skill’s metadata

The example should not give confusing information that would fail certification

When uploading my lambda and testing it on the AWS console, I get the following. This occurs after I run ask deploy

{
  "errorMessage": "Unexpected token )",
  "errorType": "SyntaxError",
  "stackTrace": [
    "    ^",
    "SyntaxError: Unexpected token )",

    "Module._compile (module.js:542:28)",
    "Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:579:10)",
    "Module.load (module.js:487:32)",
    "tryModuleLoad (module.js:446:12)",
    "Function.Module._load (module.js:438:3)",

    "require (internal/module.js:20:19)"

}

I'm using Node.js 6.10 for AWS (and I've tried 4.3 and 8.10 with no luck). Locally, I'm using node v8.9.4 and npm version 6.1.0.

Hello all,

I followed the tutorial here and tried to recreate the skill but I am getting a syntax error.
I am not sure where I am getting this error from.

Syntax error in module 'index': SyntaxError
);

is what is being shown in CloudWatch.

I've looked through js and json files I have edited but still running into the same issue. Can anyone help me?

Hi, I followed the instructions exactly, but I'm getting the following error in the cloud log. What does it mean and how can I correct it?

Unable to import module 'index': Error

Ask deploy is not working despite verifying everything is correct several times as well as trying to deploy it several times. Please help! Thank you!

Testing the skill in the developer console from the UK does not work as it calls
apiEndpoint: 'https://api.eu.amazonalexa.com' instead of 'https://api.amazonalexa.com'
for all US skills. The api endpoint does not change when you change the language of the device.

After following all of the steps when testing in developer.amazon.com. the skill returns "There is a problem with the requested skills response" error

I followed this Alexa tutorial article.

Under "Create AWS Lambda Function",
I followed the link below to deploy a lambda function.

I enter the Voice Purchase code and the skill seems to exit. Should this skill work all the way to the purchase and have the new facts available?

When users ask for “help me” within the skill, it returned :"Sorry, I can't understand the command. Please try again.".

Can someone provide an example on how to instructs users to navigate the skill’s core functionality so the help prompt can be ended with a question for users and leave the session open to receive a response?

Thanks!

I've setup this template and when I invoke a random fact, Alexa gives a fact across all 3 categories (science, history, space) without having purchased any packs. How can I separate my index.js file to only give random "free" facts while separating the ones that still need to be purchased?

Hi All!
I have finally built a workable ISP. However, each time I call the premium intent, alexa keeps on saying "Alexa keep on saying "Good news! You already own that." along with the output I've given her.

Is there a way to change/remove the default line? if not, how should I structure my func in a way that once its called it doesn't produce that default line?
My premium intent's class:

class GoogleIntentHandler(AbstractRequestHandler):
    def can_handle(self, handler_input):
        return ask_utils.is_intent_name("GoogleIntent")(handler_input)
    def handle(self, handler_input):
        in_skill_response=in_skill_product_response(handler_input)
        if in_skill_response:
            Output = handler_input.response_builder.speak("Calendar event created")
            subscription=[ l and Output for l in in_skill_response.in_skill_products if l.reference_name == "GoogleTarget"]
            if is_entitled(subscription):
                return None
            else:
                return handler_input.response_builder.add_directive(
                    SendRequestDirective(
                        name="Buy",
                        payload= {
                            "InSkillProduct": {
                                "productId": "amzn1.adg.product.0caccc4b-fa88-4685-a...6b1ffa",
                                }
                        },
                        token= "correlationToken")
                    ).response                

I know this is a node.js community. I am sure you would be able to get the idea of my class regardless. If you even provide me an answer or explanation written in node I would be fine, as working with Alexa has made it easier for me to translate node.

Just received feedback about my submission:

8. When invoking the skill with one or more of the intent(s) or sample utterances, the skill’s response is irrelevant to the request or contains an error.

Issue: [BuyIntent] Intent

Steps to Reproduce:

(After purchasing the entitlement)

User: “Alexa, open presidential wisdom”
Skill: “Welcome to Presidential Wisdom. You currently own The Thomas Jefferson Quote Pack, The Abraham Lincoln Quote Pack, The George Washington Quote Pack, The Theodore Roosevelt Quote Pack. For which Presidents you can add, say, 'Who can i add?'. To get started, you can say, 'Tell me a quote' or you can ask for a president's last name, like, 'Tell me a Washington quote.'”
User: “buy Washington pack”
Skill: “Good news, you already have The George Washington Quote Pack. There was an error handling your purchase request. Please try again or contact us for help.”

What should I change in order to fix this? Something around here?

    console.log(`Connections.Response indicated failure. error: ${handlerInput.requestEnvelope.request.status.message}`);



    return handlerInput.responseBuilder

      .speak('There was an error handling your purchase request. Please try again or contact us for help.')

      .getResponse();

  },

};

https://github.com/alexa/skill-sample-nodejs-fact-in-skill-purchases/blob/c8a63fde3164d18fdb96ca4a4cdae380927d1203/isps.samples/entitlement/history_pack.json#L44

The skill does not provide sufficient information regarding the functionality of the in-skill subscription item(s).

Intent: ProductDetailIntent

Steps to reproduce:

User: “Alexa, open premium fun facts”
Skill: “Welcome to Premium Fun Facts. To hear a random fact you can say 'Tell me a fact', or to hear about the premium categories for purchase, say 'What can I buy'. For help, say , 'Help me'... So, What can I help you with?”
User: “what can i buy”
Skill: “Products available for purchase at this time are Space Pack, History Pack, Science Pack, All Access. To learn more about a product, say 'Tell me more about' followed by the product name. If you are ready to buy say 'Buy' followed by the product name. So what can I help you with?”
User: “tell me more about all access”
Skill: “I don't think we have a product by that name. Can you try again?”

Please note that the skill should provide information about "all access".

I followed the tutorial closely but I'm getting the following error:

Try invoking the skill by saying “Alexa, open {your_skill_invocation_name}” or simulate an invocation via the ask simulate command.
