Error when deploying Alexa skill lambda (config error?)

Serverless Framework

Hi, trying to deploy my first Alexa skill lambda …

Here’s the serverless.yml file:

service: alexa-test-embargoes

provider:
  name: aws
  runtime: nodejs6.10
  region: eu-west-1 # Alexa skills are supported only by this region in EU

functions:
  embargoes:
    handler: index.handler
    events:
      - alexaSkill:
          appId: amzn1.ask.skill.there-althin-ghere-ofcourse
          enabled: true

And here’s the output when running sls deploy

$ sls deploy
Serverless: Packaging service...
Serverless: Excluding development dependencies...
 
  Serverless Error ---------------------------------------
 
  Alexa Skill event of function "embargoes" is not an object or string. The correct syntax is: alexaSkill. Please check the docs for more info.

     Node Version:           6.9.1
     Serverless Version:     1.26.0

I can’t see the error with the configuration that the deployment procedure detects. Any ideas? Thanks!
