@ -99,7 +99,7 @@ Next you need create a Lambda function.
- Click your Lambda Function icon in the middle of the diagram, scroll down you will see a `Function code` window.
- Clear the example code, copy the Python script from: <https://gist.github.com/matt2005/744b5ef548cc13d88d0569eea65f5e5b> (modified code to support Alexa's proactive mode, see details below)
- Scroll down a little bit, you will find `Environment variables`, you need add 4 environment variables:
* BASE_URL *(required)*: your Home Assistant instance's Internet accessible URL with port if need
* BASE_URL *(required)*: your Home Assistant instance's Internet accessible URL with port if needed. *Do not include the trailing `/`*.
* NOT_VERIFY_SSL *(optional)*: you can set it to *True* to ignore the SSL issue, if you don't have a valid SSL certificate or you are using self-signed certificate.
* DEBUG *(optional)*: set to *True* to log the debug message
* LONG_LIVED_ACCESS_TOKEN *(optional, not recommend)*: you will connect your Alexa Smart Home skill with your Home Assistant user account in the later steps, so that you don't need to use long-lived access token here. However, the access token you got from login flow is only valid for 30 minutes. It will be hard for you to test lambda function with the access token in test data. So for your convinces, you can remove the access token from the test data, [generate a long-lived access token][generate-long-lived-access-token] put here, then the function will fall back to read token from environment variables. (tips: You did not enable the security storage for your environment variables, so your token saved here is not that safe. You should only use it for debugging and testing purpose. You should remove and delete the long-lived access token after you finish the debugging.)
