Aws Lambda Solutions
Solution 1 - Aws Lambda
From the Lambda@Edge IAM Role documentation:
> You must create an IAM role that can be assumed by the service > principals lambda.amazonaws.com and edgelambda.amazonaws.com. This > role is assumed by the service principals when they execute your > function. For more information, see Creating the Roles and Attaching > the Policies (Console) in the topic "AWS Managed Policies for Job > Functions" in the IAM User Guide. > > You add this role under the Trust Relationship tab in IAM (do not add > it under the Permissions tab). > > Here's an example role trust policy: > > { > "Version": "2012-10-17", > "Statement": [ > { > "Effect": "Allow", > "Principal": { > "Service": [ > "lambda.amazonaws.com", > "edgelambda.amazonaws.com" > ] > }, > "Action": "sts:AssumeRole" > } > ] > }
Note : If you're doing this via the AWS Console then you have to refresh the browser after you update your IAM Role Credits: from comments @AJB
