I'm getting mixed results when asking for variables.
Sometimes it works and other times I get "Sorry, I'm having trouble accessing your Indigo Skills skill right now "

A couple of questions:
1) Is that the exact wording of the message?
2) Is this when you ask for a variable value or for a list of variables (or both)?
3) Does the error only happen after 6+ minutes of inactivity? In other words, does this only happen after you haven't asked Alexa to do anything from Indigo (control device, run action, get variable) for over 6 minutes, then once you get the error if you try again immediately it works?

Try renaming the variable.
