Is there anyway for setting up the Customer Profile (phone number, email and Full Name) through Alexa App? Its difficult to ask our customers to login to Amazon to set it up.

Is there anyway for setting up the Customer Profile (phone number, email and Full Name) through Alexa App? Its difficult to ask our customers to login to Amazon to set it up. In fact, they don't have Amazon account and only have Alexa App account. But our skill uses the customer phone number from Customer Profile API to give personalized information. If the Alexa app does not have anyway to set up the Customer Profile whats the point of having Customer Profile API? May be to access Developer's profile:-)
