+## Accessing EventListener Event Context
+
+The EventListener has a set of internal data points that are maintained for the complete processing
+of a single event. These values are available for use in `TriggerBinding` objects.
+
+This data can be accessed on the `context` parameter, as an example:
+
+```shell
+$(context.eventID) # access the internal eventID of the request
+```
+
 ## Accessing JSON keys containing periods (`.`)
 
 To access a JSON key that contains a period (`.`), you must escape the period with a backslash (`\.`). For example:
