Hello, thank you for your question.

For starters, you could use a Webhook to go fetch the access token from AWS, then it will be saved as context which you can display in dialog. 

Otherwise, on any given message call if your node.js app already knows the access token, it can just add it as a new context variable and then dialog can find it. 

Hope this helps!
