Subject: [PATCH] Pass a JSON file to the Lambda's payload (#63261)

* Add an example of passing a JSON file to the Lambda's payload
Events passed to Lambda are commonly in JSON format, the change provides an example of using JSON file as an alternative to the inline YAML payload in the other examples.
