No response from Watson, just one-way communication?

Completed all instructions as outlined with no complying issues, the only substitute was using the new OpenWhisk replacement service, Cloud Functions. You can test my app here, https://watsonnradvisorconversationapp.mybluemix.net/ to verify issue. Any ideas on where to start looking for the break would be appreciated, thanks!
Hi! Thanks for letting us know. We are looking into this.
When you go to Cloud Functions -> APIs -> the API you made, make sure under definition 'Require applications to authenticate via API key' is false -- this is something that we are working on changing in an upcoming release. Also, the sharing tab has a link to an API portal which you can test requests, to see if you are able to get a valid response from the OpenWhisk API sequence.
@anweshan, thank you for this information. I did change the 'Require applications to authenticate via API key' to false, and I was able to get valid responses from the API portal tests. However the application still had no response to questions, so I proceeded to revisit the instructions 1-by-1 and found that in the section labeled "Setting up the OpenWhisk Back-end" #4 has an error in the path parameter. The path is "action" versus "actions", and I corrected this originally to "actions", but is the folder mislabeled as per your java code paths, and should it be "action"? Or does this really matter?
Thanks for the input, the folder should be called 'actions', that was a mistake in the README in the instructions. As for the no response to questions, we are working on debugging this now.
So now that I have followed all the instructions again from scratch, I get the following error when testing the Cloud Functions API:
{
"name": "AssertionError",
"expected": true,
"operator": "==",
"message": "params.input cannot be null",
"generatedMessage": false
}
Thoughts?
Did you specify an input?
And yes we are getting the same error - we hope to patch this starter kit by end of today.
Not sure, I am new to curl; I used this example request from the API portal (only API address removed):
curl --request POST
--url https://service.us.apiconnect.ibmcloud.com/gws/apigateway/api/{my private API address}/conversation-with-discovery/submit
--header 'accept: application/json'
--header 'content-type: application/json'
--data '{"id":8377822884134912}'
I greatly appreciate your prompt responses, and I look forward to your patch!
