Answer

You are encountering the `Uncaught Error: invalid bot configuration at AWSLexV2Provider.ts` as the LexBotConfig is not formatted correctly. As seen in the source code [here](https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-js/blob/cfd206257cce6087ee76ab030543bfb4889978e8/packages/interactions/src/Providers/AWSLexV2Provider.ts#L82-L101), this error occurs when there is lack of/invalid LexBot properties.

Could you please try formatting the configuration correctly as follows (notice the removal of double quotes and rename LexBot reference) -
```
var awsconfig = {
    Auth: {
      identityPoolId: "XXXXXX",
      region: 'us-west-2'
    },
    Interactions: {
      bots: {
        //Lex2 Bot
        SimpleQnABot:
        {
          name: "AE-SimpleQnABot",
          botId: "XXXXX",
          aliasId: "XXXXX",
          localeId: "en_US",
          region: "XXXXXX",
          providerName: 'AWSLexV2Provider',
        }
      }
    }
  };
  
  export default awsconfig;
```
