Hi,
I am working on a hosted skill which require a database and ofcourse I am going to use Dynamo DB. Earlier, we could add Dynamo DB in the AWS Lambda console, but now since the code console is merged with Alexa console, I am wondering how can I do this. I have seen a step saying copying ARN and permission, role etc which seems a bit complicated. Is there a simple way?

Hey! The only way to do it is by following the steps in this page: https://developer.amazon.com/docs/hosted-skills/build-a-skill-end-to-end-using-an-alexa-hosted-skill.html#personal
If this seems complicated, you can also try using S3 and putting your content in a table format. Here you can find an example: https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/alexa/alexa-skills-kit/courses/cake-walk-5
Also, here is a similar question that you may want to use as a reference: https://forums.developer.amazon.com/questions/199734/alexa-hosted-lambda-with-persistencedynamodb.html
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the response... will take a look, as of now I managed by adding a json resource
