I'm playing around with api.ai to add some possibilities to google assistant and the google home.
I've created a new project in "Action on google" with some very very simple interactions defined in a new agent in api.ai ( only one intent and a few possible responses)
following those steps: https://developers.google.com/actions/get-started/create-project-agent
I now try to test it on my device. I've first tested it in the simulator following those steps:
https://developers.google.com/actions/get-started/preview-the-app
So I can test it in the simulator by saying "talk to my test app". Unfortunatly I don't kow what to say to my home device to trigger the testing. (Note that my device in setup in FRENCH so it is maybe a language issue)
I've read that :
all you need to do is log into the device using the same account that you used to authorize your action for testing in the simulator. Once you authorize your action for previewing, it will automatically be available on the Google Home device assigned to that same account. Note that you need to be authorized in the API.AI account under the same Google account in order for this to work!
I use only one google account, the same on home device, api.ai and google actions. This account is the owner of the new project when I check its permissions. So this should be fine.
Any idea would be helpful. Thanks
As of today (Oct. 6th 2017), you will be able to set French as a language for your API.ai bot and test it on a device or in the web simulator.
Make sure that you have also configured the related Actions on Google app in English AND French (and eventually for the locales -- french (Europe) and french (Canada)). You must have one configuration per language/locale in your bot.
Unfortunately, while the Google Assistant has launched in French, Actions on Google hasn't yet. Until it does, there is no French support for testing actions except through the simulator (where you'll be testing in a different language).

I have deployed an Alpha version of my app and supplied the email address of a tester and received the opt-in link the user can use to access the Alpha app. In typical fashion, Google gives no instructions for the user, who clicks on the link and promptly gets an error message that no Google or Stackflow search throws any light on.
A further Stackflow search reveals a complex procedure for an Android phone involving copying the opt-in link to Google Notes, pressing on it, and then taking the option to open the Google Assistant app. It would be difficult to find a better way to discourage testers.
Also, this only opens the app on an Android phone. No mention of how the 20 testers can access the Alpha app on Google Home or Nest Mini. Frustrating when the app is specifically designed for use on Google Home or Nest Mini and not on a phone. Does anyone have a solution?
Users need to opt-in to the alpha program on the phone by following the link. (They shouldn't need to copy it, but they will likely need to open it in an actual browser such as chrome.)
Once they have opted in, however, it will be usable on any device linked to the same account on your approved list and that they used to accept.
I have a pretty basic conversational action built in Actions Console and Dialogflow, it's published publicly in the directory.
No surface capability requirements, so it should be available on all surfaces according to Actions Console.
I'm able to invoke the action on my Google Home Mini, on Google Assistant and Google Home on Android, on Google Assistant on iOS, but not on Google Home on iOS. There I only get the error "Sorry, isn't supported on this device."
And we get customer complaining this as well, so it's not a one-off with my account. I've also used the same account across all surfaces when testing. Any ideas what can cause this behaviour?
I'm building an Action on Google and struggling to use the Alpha testers functionality. I have two G Suite accounts: one business and one personal (yes, I use G Suite, not Gmail for my family email). My business account is the Project Owner of the AoG project, and it's where I do most of my work. My Google Home is associated with my personal account, as is the Assistant app on my iPhone.
Initially for testing I added my personal account as a Project Owner and used the Simulator to enable Testing on Device. This allowed me to test my Action using my Google Home on my personal account.
Now I'd like to switch my personal account to be an Alpha tester, instead of using Testing on Device. While logged into the console on my personal account, I put the Simulator back into the state "No tests currently active." Somewhere along the way I whitelisted my personal account and opened the Opt-in link in a browser signed-in as my personal account. I clicked Send to Device -> Living Room Speaker (later I tried sending to my iPhone, too), but I still can't get to my Action. When I say "Talk to ", it responds with generic search results or the wrong Action.
How can I get my personal account back into a state where it can become an Alpha tester of my Action, after having used the Simulator's "Testing on Device" functionality in the past?
I developed a game using unity engine for android platform.
I have used GPGS plugin from github
But i was unable to "sign in" into GPGS during testing phase(A popup comes up saying "connecting to GPGS" loads 2 times and vanish).but as soon as i published my game on google play store,GPGS starts working properly(now i am able to sign in to my account).
Where i was wrong during my testing phase?
I already add tester email on google play console
Try to check this documentation.
Maybe you missed some essential steps.
To add testing access to an account:
Open the Testing tab for your game in the Google Play Developer Console.
Click the Add testers button.
In the dialog that appears, enter the email addresses of the Google Accounts that you wish to add as testers (one email address per
line).
Click Add to save your preferences. The tester accounts you added should now be able to access your Google Play games services.
You can also see this forum for reference.
I've got an Actions on Google application which runs when shared with another Google account but doesn't run for the application owner.
I keeps asking me to:
Please turn on Voice & Audio Activity, Web & App Activity, and Device Information permissions for your Google Account.
Voice, Audio, Web & App activity are turned on for my account. Any clues?
Thanks
