I've been playing around with API Gateway & Lambda a bit lately, and it definitely feels like these services are sometimes built by teams that don't talk to each other. API Gateway tries really hard to HIDE things from you. For instance, you can't see what the requested URL was without using a fair bit of VTL to put it back together from some other variables. Any only lately can get you a full list of query parameters, without having to specify them at the time of API creation. In fact, it seems like most of the work on API Gateway, since it's release, has been to let end-users have more access to data they hid in the first place.
