iam:PassRole permission denied when trying to attach a role to a Lambda Function in AWS Playground

[sushant-kk]

Hi

I am trying to create a Lambda Function in AWS Playground. When I try to attach a custom role for the Lambda Function, it throws an error like “You don’t have permission to iam:PassRole”. The role I have created has a policy attached to it with the following permissions:

EC2:
“ec2:TerminateInstances”,
“ec2:StartInstances”,
“ec2:StopInstances”

CloudWatch Logs:
“logs:CreateLogGroup”,
“logs:CreateLogStream”,
“logs:PutLogEvents”

Is AWS lambda service not allowed in the AWS playground or is there any workaround?

Thanks!

Hi,

I just checked the AWS playground, and everything seems fine with Lambda and IAM roles. I can create a new Lambda with a new role or a custom role with a custom policy. Please try again and share a screenshot, it will be really helpful. Then, I’ll assist you in checking it.
