Unable to Create Amazon DocumentDB Cluster – Permission Issue

Hi Team,

I was trying to create an Amazon DocumentDB cluster using the AWS Console. However, I encountered a permissions issue during the setup process.

Here’s the error I received:

User: arn:aws:iam::891376908875:user/kk_labs_user_901599 is not authorized to perform: rds:CreateDBCluster on resource arn:aws:rds:us-east-1:891376908875:cluster:docdb-2025-05-18-21-35-45
Reason: No identity-based policy allows the rds:CreateDBCluster action.

I would like to know:

Is there a specific setup or configuration expected from my side for creating the DocumentDB cluster?
Could you please clarify why my user does not have the required permissions to perform this action?

Please let me know how to proceed.

Thanks,
Gireesh
