Troubleshooting AWS Well-Architected Tool identity and access
Use the following information to help you diagnose and fix common issues that you might encounter when working with AWS WA Tool and IAM.
I'm not authorized to perform an action in AWS WA Tool
If the AWS Management Console tells you that you're not authorized to perform an action, then you must contact your administrator for assistance. Your administrator is the person that provided you with your sign-in credentials.
The following example error occurs when the
mateojackson user tries to use the console to perform the
DeleteWorkload action, but does not have permissions.
User: arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/mateojacksonis not authorized to perform:wellarchitected:DeleteWorkloadon resource:11112222333344445555666677778888
For this example, ask your administrator to update your policies to allow you to
access the 11112222333344445555666677778888 resource using the
wellarchitected:DeleteWorkload action.
