help with specific instance of certificate validation about alexa-skills-kit-sdk-for-python HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey @fredzannarbor , thanks for the issue. As mentioned in #53, we are working on providing the guidance to hosting skills as custom webservice. We cannot provide any help on usage of other third party library calls for doing this validation. You would need to check the corresponding documentation on their usage and input requirements.

However, as for the code structure on where this has to be done for example in your skill sample, this validation should be the first step to be done before invoking your skill code. So the validation has to be done before calling skill_obj.invoke. As for raising a HTTP 400 exception, you can use Flask's built-in Werkzeug's exceptions and similarly other HTTP exceptions.

Please let us know if you face any other problem.

Hey @fredzannarbor , we hope you figured out where to do the request signature validation before invoking the skill handlers. We are closing this issue. Please reopen if you still have questions. \

We are tracking #53 to provide documentation and other support for skill deployment as custom web service. Please keep track of that. Thanks a lot for being patient.
