Diagnosing common errors in the console with Amazon Q Developer
In the AWS Management Console, Amazon Q Developer diagnoses common errors you encounter while working with AWS services, such as insufficient permissions, incorrect configuration, and exceeding service limits. Amazon Q troubleshoots errors you receive while using the following services in the AWS console:
-
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)
-
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)
-
Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3)
-
AWS Lambda
In addition, Amazon Q troubleshoots IAM permission errors across all AWS console pages and a limited number of service-specific errors for some AWS services. Amazon Q doesn't maintain a history of previous error diagnosing sessions.
If you're unable to diagnose your error with Amazon Q, you can use Amazon Q to create a support case with Support. For more information, see Using Amazon Q Developer to chat with Support. If you have an issue specific to the Amazon Q error diagnosing feature, you can use the thumbs-down icon to report an issue.
Add permissions
For an IAM policy that grants permissions needed for diagnosing console errors, see Allow users to diagnose console errors with Amazon Q.
