Create Bot

If this is your first time in the Amazon Lex console, you may be prompted with a welcome page. Choose "Get Started" and then "Cancel" so that you are at the Lex page with "Bots", "Intents", and "Slot Types" on the left hand navigation. If this isn't your first time, you will be brought directly to the Lex console.

From the Amazon Lex console, select "Bots" on the left and then choose "Create" and choose "Custom Bot".
