Hello Cool tutorial. I decided to try and make my own skill just for fun. It was similar to the facts but i change the facts to characters and renamed facts to "operators.

Anyhow when i try the "open space geek" or in my case "open lord chanka" i get The remote endpoint could not be called, or the response it returned was invalid. Any idea where i may have gone wrong ?

@vanucci Thanks for reaching out.
Amazon Alexa skills are particular in the way they are tested. Did you follow a tutorial, or clone/copy/paste? The skills here use my endpoints, and if the context is changed, it won't be recognized on the Amazon servers. Did you set up your own AWS.amazon.com account, and developer.amazon.com account as well? This is critical to testing your skill. You can trigger test events in the developer dashboard, and you can also set up test events in the AWS lambda console as well. Thirdly, you should be able to test your skill before it goes live at echosim.io
