Unable to use more than two Action Packages to create multiple custom actions

Question

I followed this link : https://developers.google.com/assistant/sdk/guides/service/python/extend/custom-actions

And I successfully create three actions files. and it works individually. but when I test all together like deploying three action packages:

./gactions update --action_package MqttAct.json --action_package action.json --action_package MesureTemp.json --project rpi3-0001-ga-******

I found that only two packages will work. it's like we can't have more than two action packages?

Answer 1

I'm surprised you can even deploy two packages at the same time. The idea is that you have one action package, which can contain a variety of actions merged together.

Here is a merged action package, based on the documentation:

    "displayName": "Blinky light",
    "invocationName": "Blinky light",
