title: Dialogflow/API.ai Amazon Echo integration: Simple plain text bot for testing
body: <p>I have been trying to make my simple test bot (it's just a single intent with three different text based responses) and hook it up to my amazon echo for a proof of concept demo.</p>
  
  <p>I am having trouble with the amazon side of the integration. Here are my questions:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>How do I make it so I can test my skill on my echo. Do I need to publish it even before I can test it? How does it work</li>
  <li>How do I make my echo communicate with the api.ai/dialogflow server to get the response I want?</li>
  <li>What link do I fill in in the 'Endpoint' part of the configuration</li>
  <li>What is the SSL Certificate and how do I configure it?</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>All I want my bot to do with alexa is to recognise what I say and reply with a simple text answer...</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for helping me out!</p>
