Steps needed to create an AWS Lambda function that communicates with a Custom Lambda skill - Tutorial

Roughly, this is what you would need to do:

1. Sign up as a Developer in Monzo - https://developers.getmondo.co.uk/ - Create a client and copy the details as they would be needed to configure OAuth2 in the Alexa Skill
2. Create an AWS Lambda function - Zip the lambda_function.py and requests folder - Upload it to the AWS Lambda function
3. Create an Alexa Skill - In the interaction model of the Alexa Skill - Copy and the contents of intent_schema.json and the sample_utterances.txt - In configuration of the Alexa Skill - Enter the Monzo Client App details - Add account linking details - see screenshot (screenshots/AccountLinking_Example.png)
4. Associate the Lambda function previously created

If you don't want to go through the hassle of deploying the code and creating a Skill, I can add you as a tester of the skill. Just send me your email address to (antonio @ itxo . io), I'll grant you access to it and you will be able to install the skill on your Echo.

Enjoy!
