title: AWS Step Functions - Read Message from SQS Queue and Save to DynamoDb - Can't Save Messsage Attributes
body: <p>I am trying to implement the step function to read from SQS and save the message to DynamoDb. I followed the tutorial on AWS and it works. </p>
  
  <p>When I add Message Attributes to the message these aren't stored in the Db. </p>
  
  <p>My question is how do I get step functions to find and save the message attributes? </p>

  <p>Thanks, </p>
