custom attribute through AVS to my Skill

I would like to call AVS(Alexa Voice Service) with a recorded speech and an additional custom attribute, this custom attribute should be read and processed in My Skill.

1.) Is it possible to send a custom attribute to AVS?

2.) Would AVS forward this custom attribute further to my backend Alexa Skill?

[SMARTPHONE] –voice+custom-attr-> [AVS] –json-with-forwarded-custom-attr-> [SKILL]

Hi @softcon, Sorry currently you cannot send customer attributes, all the events that interact with Alexa have to follow the format as described on AVS API documentation, but if the user can provide the value in the speech than I believe the skill will be able to parse it out and pass it correctly as a intent parameter.
