Hi there
Please help me up with the following skill idea
I have almost a month trying to make a skill that allows users to retrieve data, but I’m stuck on it.
This is the idea I’m picturing…
Let’s say somebody did lost a thing (a backpack for example) inside a mall
The guy approach to an alexa device in the mall and ask alexa something like:
User: Alexa, open “lost things”
Alexa: Tell me what did you lost
User: backpack
Alexa: There are four backpacks in my lost things database
Alexa: Tell me what color your backpack is
User: green
Alexa: Thera are one green backpack at the concierge’s desk, ask her about it
So, for doing this
I did create a data base in a API (I made this using the next url https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/list/MYDATABASE/od6/public/basic?alt=json )
I’m using an API block as following:
Header assignments
(no data in htttp header nor in value)
Transform into variables
Object path: response.feed.entry. [row number].title.$t
apply to: [variable]
But I’m realizing this way may take me for ever entering an object path for every item in the database and at the end, that API database is going to be updated every time a lost thing is recovered or collected in the concierge’s desk.
Is there anything else to try or to correct in my project skill?
