I am not authorized to perform an action in Amazon Nova Act
If the AWS Management Console tells you that you’re not authorized to perform an action, then you must contact your administrator for assistance. Your administrator is the person that provided you with your user name and password.
The following example error occurs when the mateojackson
IAM user tries to use the console to view details about workflow runs but does not have nova-act:ListWorkflowRuns permissions.
User: arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/mateojackson is not authorized to perform: nova-act:ListWorkflowRuns on resource: my-workflow-definition
In this case, Mateo asks his administrator to update his policies to allow him to access the my-workflow-definition resource using the nova-act:ListWorkflowRuns action.
I want to allow people outside of my AWS account to access my Amazon Nova Act resources
You can create a role that users in other accounts or people outside of your organization can use to access your resources. You can specify who is trusted to assume the role. For services that support resource-based policies or access control lists (ACLs), you can use those policies to grant people access to your resources.
