How do I set up an Alexa-hosted skill to use resources on a personal AWS account?
With the AWS Lambda execution role ARN, you can seamlessly use resources on a personal AWS account to expand the functionality of your Alexa-hosted skill. For example, you can connect the Alexa-hosted skill to an Amazon DynamoDB table. Take the following steps to set up your Alexa-hosted skill to use resources on a personal AWS account:
In the Alexa developer console, open your Alexa-hosted skill, and then in the code editor click the icon that has hover text AWS Lambda Role Execution ARN. Copy the ARN.
If you have not done so already, on your personal AWS account, in the Identity and Access Management (IAM) dashboard, create a role that allows access to the resource that you want your Alexa-hosted skill to access.
In the IAM dashboard, click Roles, click the name of the role you want to edit, and then click the Trust relationships tab.
Edit the trust relationship to include the sts:AssumeRole action, and specify the AWS Lambda
