Vendored requests are now removed from botocore.

Consider packaging your Lambda code with requirements.txt using CloudFormation package or SAM CLI packaging functionality.

My older answer from before vendored requests deprecation: You may be able to leverage requests module from the boto library without having to install or package your function.

Consider this import: import botocore.vendored.requests as requests
