Can an Alexa Trigger send variables to Lambda

Question

I am starting to work with Alexa Skills and have already created a AWS Lambda that has cloudwatch triggers, each trigger has a specific variable that is used when the lambda runs (E.G, country of IE will run the lambda using IE as a key.)

I now want to call the AWS Lambda via an Alexa skill but i want to pass the specific key. (E.G, Alexa run the IE feed.)

The documentation i found only documents how to trigger the lambda, not trigger it and passing a variable.

Can this be done? Or is a skill only able to trigger a lambda?

Answer 1

The only interface is really the defined JSON interface. So I don't see a chance to add additional things to it.

What do you mean with country for IE? For me IE always means internet explorer but that's for sure not the right translation here ;-).
