Is there a way I can capture the XDM event request ID as a data element to use in other custom code actions?

I am looking to have a unique request ID be set as a variable returned in some of my Rules. I would like to be able to create a data element in Adobe Data Collection that lets me capture this requestID every time an event comes in and use that value. 

Is this something that is possible?

I am not yet on XDM collection, so I don't know if this is available, but I found a reference to payload.attributes.requestId, is that available in your mapping to send this to a Data Element?

Going to try this and see if I am able to access that. Looking at the Edge transactions for a given hit now. Thanks for the suggestion

If you can't use payload.attributes.requestId directly in your implementation, then you might need to resort to Processing Rules, where that field should be available as a context variable.
