Cannot change invocation name #100

Closed bluiska closed 6 years ago

bluiska commented 6 years ago

Hi! I tried everything I could be I don't seem to be able to change the invocation name so I could use the template for my own skill. I have changed every reference I could find to "audio player" to "my own name" but no matter if I re-deploy or change the name in the alexa console I can only refer to the skill by the name "audio-player". Also, is there a way to play non-HTTPS links?

Thank you!

PS: Otherwise this repo is super useful!

So the weird thing is that I left the thing for a while and for the fun of it I tried to see if it worked and it did! Somehow it took Amazon a while to actually update the invocation name... weird. Why could this have happened?

ranjithavav commented 6 years ago

you can change the invocation name in developer.amazon.com

Edit skill under that you can see invocation and change capture

Thank you @avrpayyyur for helping - looks like the problem is solved. Closing this issue.

I'm having the same issue. I've changed my invocation name, saved, built. minutes after getting the build complete message, it's still responding to the old invocation name and not the new. I think there are propagation issues with the build process. Done doesn't mean done.

sebsto commented 6 years ago

When you change the invocation name, you need also to disable and reenable the skill on your account. Just turn off the test switch and turn it on again

@sebsto Thanks it solved the problem.

That worked for me. I would call this a bug, as there is no indication anywhere (eg, when changing the invocation name) that this is required.

Definitely it's a bug. spent two hour for me to find what's wrong.

pedrini77 commented 6 years ago

Bug (or lack of an informational message). I spent a good 45min trying to figure this out too.

mmahmad commented 5 years ago

Can confirm this issue still exists.

Where do I do this at? I'm having the same issue

sebsto commented 5 years ago

you can do that either in the Alexa developer console (developer.amazon.com) in the Test tab. Or on the Alexa App (on mobile or alexa.amazon.com) in the Skills section.

sharanken commented 5 years ago

can anyone tell me about this issue https://github.com/alexa/skill-sample-nodejs-audio-player/issues/149#issue-441232779

sonhanguyen commented 5 years ago

did anyone bother to add the "disable/enable again" instruction into some documentation somewhere when this issue was "resolved"?
