# Invoke a Lambda function from an Amazon SQS trigger
<a name="sqs_example_serverless_SQS_Lambda_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to implement a Lambda function that receives an event triggered by receiving messages from an SQS queue. The function retrieves the messages from the event parameter and logs the content of each message.

# Reporting batch item failures for Lambda functions with an Amazon SQS trigger
<a name="sqs_example_serverless_SQS_Lambda_batch_item_failures_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to implement partial batch response for Lambda functions that receive events from an SQS queue. The function reports the batch item failures in the response, signaling to Lambda to retry those messages later.
