Hi, my server is behind a Cloudflare proxy, and since this afternoon I haven’t been able to validate my skill... It’s been working for over a year, and without changing anything, after entering my HA credentials (which are correct), the Alexa app says: “Unable to link your account with Alexa, please try again later.”

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

Go to Cloudflare and navigate to Your_Account > Your_Hostname > Security > Settings, then disable “Bot Fight Mode.” You lose a bit of security, but it's the only way that works for me until I find a better solution.
