Question about ApplicationId about azure4alexa

[tamhinsf]

Hey - the code ignores the ApplicationId check when you deploy in DEBUG mode. Unfortunately, I messed something up in the last check-in and now it ignores the App ID check regardless of DEBUG or RELEASE mode.

I'll fix it in a bit. Thanks for checking it out my repo!

Ah I see. So that ApplicationId check is something you've made, it's not something that is required by Amazon for the skill to have? Is it like a key to prevent calls not from Alexa to that service?

[tamhinsf]

The App ID check is something Amazon requires for certification, but you can fake the validation while you're in dev. I'm just overriding the validation provided by the AlexaSkillsKit.NET package I'm using.

Yup - it's like a key to prevent calls from non-Alexa sources.

Restored and enhanced check for AppId.
