I was able to navigate all the way through the guide until step 5. I created a developer account and added the trigger. I entered the name of the skill and completed all the items list on the left (skill information, interaction model, configuration, test, publishing information, and privacy policy). The SSL certification was not listed on my account. I do not know why it is not showing up or how to get it. I believe this is causing my issue. When I ask the device to play [tv show] [season] [episode] it just searches amazon prime video. What am I doing wrong and is the SSL certification page my problem??
Note: I am an amateur so please bare with me.
Thanks!
That guide is very outdated I'm afraid. It is also a bit mashed up, it was originally a guide that deployed to Heroku but has since been changed to use AWS. Though there are fragments of the old guide still there that are not relevant to AWS.
e.g. the step five in the guide you are stuck on says
Quote:On the next page, choose “AWS Lambda ARN” for the Endpoint and paste in the ARNfollowed by
Quote:On the next page, select “My development endpoint is a subdomain of a domain that has a wildcard certificate from a certificate authority”.
The second part was for the old Heroku guide and shouldn't be there.
If using AWS Lambda as your endpoint you do not need to set the SSL as AWS does this for you. You won't even see the tab.
If you have followed the guide fully then I would suggest you either start again or go over each step this time using the official README. Because the old guide is ... well, old and outdated.
