question

I have an Alexa custom skill that has an AWS lambda function as an end point. When the skill POSTs a request to the end point, I would like the lambda function to route the request to a specific URL. I have a partial implementation working, but I really need access to the POST request HTTP header so that I can avoid having to replicate the header info manually. How can I do that? This is an Alexa Skills Kit event trigger, but I don't see how to get at the HTTP POST request header inside my lambda_function.py (USING PYTHON) code...
