I tried to follow Using DynamoDB with Custom Alexa Skills - Dabble Lab #226 - YouTube video, had some issues that mostly I was able to fix. I guess I am just to new to AWS and Lambda. But I wonder if someone is able to explain me why I don't have CloudWatch Logs as target, as shown in the video and how I can fix that. When I try to save a movietitle alexa sais 'we cannot save your movie right now. Try again!'. Would be amazing If someone here could help me : )
My lambda code:
/* eslint-disable func-names */
/* eslint-disable no-console */
