    "languageModel": {
      "invocationName": "q and a",
      "types": [
        {
          "name": "EXAMPLE_QUESTIONS",
          "values": [
            {
              "name": {
                "value": "book a car"
              }
            },
            {

                "value": "reserver a car"
              }
            },
            {
              "name": {
                "value": "make a car reservation"
              }
            },
            {
              "name": {
                "value": "book a car for {PickUpDate}"
              }
            },
            {
              "name": {
                "value": "dummy utterance"
              }
            }
          ]
        }
      ],
      "intents": [
        {
          "slots": [
            {
              "name": "QnA_slot",
              "type": "EXAMPLE_QUESTIONS"
            }
          ],
          "name": "Qna_intent",
          "samples": [
            "{QnA_slot}"
          ]
        },
        {
          "name": "AMAZON.StopIntent"
        },
        {
          "name": "AMAZON.RepeatIntent"
        },
        {
          "name": "AMAZON.FallbackIntent"
        },
        {
          "name": "AMAZON.CancelIntent"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

and now when We try to ask alexa about that - it causes an error - it finds the question but it dont know what to do next

Expected behavior Alexa should go with follow-up question - same as qnabot client

Version QnaBot 5.2.0

Thanks for raising this issue and sorry for the delayed response. I've been able to reproduce this issue on the current release (v5.3.4). I'll let you know once we have a fix.

Currently, the Alexa export feature only exports utterances and not slots; this functionality was never implemented. We are adding this to our backlog for next year.
