not authorized to perform this action

Post by admin »

Hello,
I have created following policy for the IAM user, however despite having all permissions I am getting Exception: You are not authorized to perform this operation.
If I give full EC2 permission it does create the snapshot, however I see the only difference is in Tags section, rest it does show the snapshot even in other case, which certainly I cant give, so any recommendations. I have m3.large AWS EC2 instance so please provide your comments.
