Can Lambda Invoke An Alexa Skill?

0
votes

Is it possible for my lambda code to launch the Alexa skill and do something without the user saying something?

For example,

Alexa, remind me in 10 minutes to take out the garbage

And then after 10 min my skill launches itself and says, take out the garbage.

No, this is currently not possible. It is certainly a widely requested feature though - they are very aware that developers want this.

Here's a feature request this is similar to what you are asking for.
