Got following Cloudwatch error

from (referred : https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSJavaScriptSDK/latest/AWS/DynamoDB.html#listTables-property)

I have already updated IamRoleStatements in serverless to add ListTables in serverless file.

Can someone please help me?

Answer 1

Based on the following documentation link, the resource type of your policy need to be asterisk (*) since you need ListTables action, for example:

iamRoleStatements:
- Effect: "Allow"
  Action:
    - dynamodb:ListTables
  Resource: "*"
