Hi,

You can publish an alias through aws console as well.

1. Go to your lambda function.
2. You will find an alias header. ( Search for keyword alias ). click on the header.
3. You will find a button Create alias. Click on it.
4. Provide name, description and version number to which you are assigning an alias.
5. Alias will be created successfully.

Then in the dropdown, it will show you the the lambda , alias.

Thank you.

To use a lambda alias with my bot alias locale I needed to use the aws cdk with the aws lexv2-models update-bot-alias command. I was able to update the en_US local like so:

  "botAliasLocaleSettings": {
      "en_US": {
          "enabled": true,
          "codeHookSpecification": {
              "lambdaCodeHook": {
                  "lambdaARN": "arn:aws:lambda:<region>:<accountId>:function:<functionName>:<aliasName>",
                  "codeHookInterfaceVersion": "1.0"
              }
          }
      }
  },

Note, from the console the "Lambda function version or alias" section is blank but calling describe-bot-alias shows the proper configuration. This appears to be a console bug.
