Error: failed to list tables not authorized dynamodb
Answered by Rafal Wilinski
What's Causing This Error
This error occurs when the service invoking the DynamoDB ListTables
operation does not have the required identity-based policy.
In simple terms, the service invoking the DynamoDB API does not have the required permissions to execute the ListTables
operation.
Solution: Here's How To Resolve It
To solve the error, visit the IAM console and locate the IAM role assigned to the service. Then, attach the inline policy shown below to the IAM Role.
{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": [ { "Sid": "allowListTablesPolicy", "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "dynamodb:ListTables", "Resource": "*" } ] }
Afterwards, save the changes to the role. The ListTables
operation will work the next time you execute the operation via the service. However, ensure that you have added the policy to the correct role.
