• Run the attached script to send an example trace Vector.
• Open the AWS console (https://us-east-1.console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/home?region=us-east-1#xray:traces/query for us-east-1), paste the Trace ID from the script output into the search field, "View Trace": You should see the example trace.

TRACE_ID="1-$HEX_TIME-$GUID"

Thanks, I've added some files but I am not sure if that's sufficient or if there's something missing, are you able to cross check that for me?
