Is there anything I should do/configure in order to make event include body-json field?

Hi,

I'm wondering if I'm missing something, as by default I don't seem to have body-json in my lambda event parameter. No config param to somehow turn it on in neither Twilio nor Lex. var twilioSMS = qs.parse(event["body-json"]);

Any hint?

Thanks

Leaving a response for the record. This example is NOT a lambda Lex Code Hook for use with example found here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lex/latest/dg/twilio-bot-association.html

It is a lambda function that stands between Twilio and does the integration instead.

This is an AWS Lambda function that fronts the Amazon Lex service and is the companion code to this blogpost: https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/ai/integrate-your-amazon-lex-bot-with-any-messaging-service/

Please follow the steps outlined in the above blogpost and let me know if you into any issues.

Yes! The blog post is just what we needed :) I've come across this repo thru Twilio support - trying to figure out how I could access the Twilio's 'To' field containing number that received the SMS, so I can use it to segment users in Lex Lambda Code Hook containing our business logic. Using the blog post I could easily modify userId event field to include both sender and recipient phone numbers. Thanks @filanthropic
