Documentation misses an important gotcha #183

Closed ramanraja closed 9 months ago

The documentation in tutorials like link, link and link completely miss an important point: They assume that the reader is located in North America, and ask them to create the lambda and the database in us-east1 region. This has created lot of frustration for beginners outside North America: With the lambda created in the wrong region, the device discovery process always fails without any indication of what went wrong. Please add a prominent link to the following URL at the beginning of these tutorials: https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/docs/alexa/smarthome/develop-smart-home-skills-in-multiple-languages.html#deploy
