Alexa appears to be linked to someone else's ISY portal

I bought an Amazon Dot for Black Friday. Took an evening to setup and I have 60 some devices/scenes/programs.  Worked very well.  Was very happy.

 

This evening I tried to turn off the living room lights, and Alexa replied "Command doesn't work for device living room lights".  I tried a couple of more commands, and got the same results.

 

I opened the Alexa app on my iPhone, and checked the "Smart Home" devices.  Instead of my 60 some devices, I had 90 devices.  There were 26 devices that weren't mine.  They were named in French.  I decided to try to clean things up, so I told the app to "Forget all devices and groups".  They I clicked "Discover devices".   Now none of my ISY devices show up.  Only the 26 French devices, and my 3 Nest Thermostats.

 

I only have 2 skills:  ISY and Nest.

 

It appears that the Alexa ISY skill somehow got linked to someone else's ISY.

 

Things were working this evening around 6PM.  But they were broken around 10PM.  I didn't touch any configurations in between.

 

Sorry if this was covered in another topic.  I couldn't find one.

I could not find the other threads and my a echo is showing a combination of my devices and some others that appear to be in french.  What is the proper procedure to fix this?

In the Alexa app select "Forget All Devices" and then re-discover.

Thanks neighbor:)

Thanks neighbor:)

It was some debugging/testing process the code writer went through, that left some French residue in most of our voicebases by accident.

 

Glad your working again!
