actions-on-google Account Linking Signin status is "ERROR" always

Question

I got this sample code from the docs of actions on google account linking with google account. The signin.status is always "ERROR". I have tried on actions console simulator, google assistant app on my phone and on a google home mini with personal results on. But the result is the same in all cases.

const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');

const {actionssdk, SignIn} = require('actions-on-google');
const app = actionssdk({
  // REPLACE THE PLACEHOLDER WITH THE CLIENT_ID OF YOUR ACTIONS PROJECT
  clientId: <client_id>,
});

// Intent that starts the account linking flow.
app.intent('actions.intent.MAIN', (conv) => {
  conv.ask(new SignIn('To get your account details'));
});
// Create an Actions SDK intent with the `actions_intent_SIGN_IN` event.
app.intent('actions.intent.SIGN_IN', (conv, params, signin) => {
    console.log(signin)
  if (signin.status === 'OK') {
    const payload = conv.user.profile.payload;
    conv.ask(`I got your account details, ${payload.name}. What do you want to do next?`);
  } else {
    conv.ask(`I won't be able to save your data, but what do you want to do next?`);
  }
});

app.intent('actions.intent.TEXT', (conv) => {
    conv.close("bye");
})

//Run server
const expressApp = express().use(bodyParser.json());
expressApp.post('/', function(req,res){
    app(req,res);
});
expressApp.listen(8080,() => {console.log("listening")});

This is the signin object I'm being returned { '@type': 'type.googleapis.com/google.actions.v2.SignInValue', status: 'ERROR' }

EDIT

My actions.json is as follows

{
  "actions": [
    {
      "description": "Default Welcome Intent",
      "name": "MAIN",
      "fulfillment": {
        "conversationName": "fulfilment function"
      },
      "intent": {
        "name": "actions.intent.MAIN",
        "trigger": {
          "queryPatterns": [
            "talk to Care Cat"
          ]
        }
      }
    },
    {
      "description": "Everything Else Intent",
            "name": "allElse",
            "fulfillment": {
                "conversationName": "fulfilment function"
            },
            "intent": {
                "name": "actions.intent.TEXT"
            }
    }
  ],
  "conversations": {
    "fulfilment function": {
      "name": "fulfilment function",
      "url": <url>
    }
  },
  "locale": "en"
}

Could it be because it is still a test app which is not published yet?

Can someone help me with this?

Accountlinking should work fine for test apps, have you already configured accountlinking in your Google Assistant project before using the code? https://developers.google.com/assistant/identity/google-sign-in#configure_the_project — Jordi, Dec 01 '19 at 11:21
I did. That's how I got my client ID and using it in the code. Is there anything I'm missing in my actions.json file? — Sai Ram Chittala, Dec 01 '19 at 18:43
