How Should I Persist Values in a Music Skill?

I see that session attributes are not available in Music Skills and that DynamoDB is the recommended way to do this. But if, for example, I create a unique array object during the "Initiate" step and store it in DynamoDB, how will "GetNextItem" even know the name of that unique object? The object would need to be unique enough to not conflict with other concurrent sessions.

I figured it out. For anyone else wondering, the value for "playbackMethod.id" can be any randomly generated string you want when you initiate. It will be part of your outgoing JSON request. That same value will be come back in the JSON response for subsequent plays as "payload.currentItemReference.queueId" and can act as a session attribute.
