This Alexa Skill is a working example of how to integrate the [Amazon Alexa Skill API] (https://developer.amazon.com/public/solutions/alexa/alexa-skills-kit/docs/alexa-skills-kit-interaction-model-reference#Slot%20Types) with the Salesforce Visual Flow tool via its API. Once in place you can add voice integration to Salesforce through Flow and clicks not code!
You can read and hear more about how we created it and how to try it out for yourself in your own org, in the following blog articles. We have also provided some example Flows that help you get started.
- Amazon Echo… Meet FinancialForce ERP

You can deploy these Flows to your org then configure the interaction model and sample utterances accordingly. These are included in each of the repositories below, refer to this [blog] on how to setup.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This sample includes other libraries within the node_modules folder.
