Lambda not triggered by Alexa Skill

Question

Hello,

My Lambda is not being triggered by my Alexa Smart Home Skill API.

I would like to look at the debug log to see what's going wrong, but I can't seem to find any log information for my Alexa skill.

Where could I find the log for my skill?

Kind regards,

Koen van Putten

Having exactly the same problem. I am sure that my lambda function is working perfectly but when i try to discover devices i find noting on my alexa app. (Lambda gives the response for the discover devices and the test case also passes.)

Having the same problem... this was working last week and failing now. 'Add Device' from Alexa App immediately fails and no cloud watch log entries are written.

Using Echo Dot, Alexa will discover devices and they will appear in Alexa App.

Having the Echo Dot on allows the Alexa App to do discovery for me.

Hi ,
I am also facing the same issue.
- when I can doing the Lambda function test by "Amazon lambda web page " as "discover the device " I am getting the response and I can see it it saying successful.

1- when I am hitting "discover the devices " by alexa app after successful account linking, it's reflecting error as "failed discovery devices"

2- I am able to see the logs in cloud watch when testing is done by "Amazon lambda web page" test

But When I am doing through the Alexa app, I can not see any logs in Cloud watch.
Any help would be much appricicated!!

Hi there,

For further investigation, could you share your skill ID and account linking credentials which already connected to your device so that I can reproduce the issue locally.

Please file a contact us here where we will be able to assist further.
