How do you use versioning and aliasing in Amazon Lex to manage different stages of your bot development lifecycle?
In Amazon Lex, versioning and aliasing help manage bot development lifecycle stages effectively. To use them:
1. Create a bot with intents and slot types.
2. Publish the bot to create a numbered version (e.g., v1).
3. Assign an alias (e.g., “Development”) to the version for easy reference.
4. Make updates in the “$LATEST” version without affecting the published one.
5. Test changes in the latest version before publishing as a new version (e.g., v2).
6. Update the alias (e.g., “Development”) to point to the new version.
7. Use aliases like “Production” or “Testing” to manage different environments.
