How to propagate trace from SQS to Lambda?

[andreas-trvlk]

For context, I have a Lambda function that processes message from a SQS. We want to enhance the X-Ray tracing as the trace info doesn't get propagated from SQS to Lambda. I have been following this https://docs.aws.amazon.com/xray/latest/devguide/xray-services-sqs.html and even implemented the same exact code. But, I got exception similar to #19

FacadeSegments cannot be mutated.: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: FacadeSegments cannot be mutated.
	at com.amazonaws.xray.entities.FacadeSegment.setTraceId(FacadeSegment.java:311)

How to properly propagate trace information from SQS to Lambda?

Hi @andreas-trvlk, this propagation isn't supported today, see aws/aws-xray-sdk-node#208 to track its progress.
