amazon-echo

I am trying to integrate amazon skill kit in my website without an amazon echo unit. I want to implement voice commands on my website using the laptop/PC microphone instead of an echo unit. I have used this tutorial but I didn't find anything about how to implement it on my side. I also tried these samples available on github. But I think these also require an Amazon echo device: https://github.com/amzn/alexa-skills-kit-js I am using Windows with the development environment given below My development environment I am able to configure web server for Alexa skills and it is working Asp.Net C#

As of now I cannot seem to get my Alexa skill linked with twitter.

I login and everything, so I think issue is with redirection, which is defined in the twitter auth

However, when I tried testing the skill on my Echo, Alexa replies "Sorry, I didn't

I'm required to create a Amazon Skill Kit to open a ticket in our ticketing tool. By looking at the examples for Amazon Skill Kit, I couldn't find a way of accepting the free form text as input. Other option is by creating a custom slot with all probable set of inputs as custom slot inputs. But in my case, all i have to do is capture the full content of user input to log it somewhere in the ticket which is very unlikely to expect the probable utterances before hand. Correction to my comment... I, and others, may be misunderstanding the deprecation of the AMAZON.LITERAL. I found that custom

I'm playing around with the Alexa Skills Kit (for the Amazon Echo) and want to create a skill that would send the intent to an AWS Lambda function which would just email something back to me. Sample Utterances would be something like this: MemoIntent take a memo {myMemo} MemoIntent to take a memo {myMemo} MemoIntent send a memo {myMemo} This would allow me to say something like "Alexa, ask my secretary to take a memo, remind me to go to the store on my way home today" and would then get an email from my Lambda function saying, "remind me to go to the store on my way home today." The myMemo
