devices trigger other devices, no more devices found by alexa about pimatic-echo

Please make sure to delete the echo-database folder from your pimatic root. Then try to search for devices again. The last update changed the way the devices are identified to make sure you can move or delete devices from pimatic

Thanks for the ultra fast response.
I stopped pimatic, deleted the folder in its root directory and started it again, sadly still no devices are discovered.

Any further hints what i could check?

[michbeck100]

Not at the moment. I will check if I have the same problem

Today I scanned again without changing anything and all devices were found and work without issues. Will report if the incorrect links of devices will happen again.

After losing all links between Alexa devices and pimatic devices (pimatic responded with "ID not found" when using alexa to control pimatic devices), i tried to scan for devices again.
Now Alexa does not find any devices anymore.
Deleting "echo-database" directory and nodemodule/pimatic-echo did not help.

Did another change of protocol happen on the alexa side? On the pimatic side nothing changed, all up2date and working.

There must be a change on the Alexa side obviously. But I can't tell which, as I am not working for amazon ;-)

As this can happen every time and I can't do much about it, I close this ticket.
