AWS released an updated to test resource-level permissions using the IAM Policy Simulator and APIs to support this.  We thought this would be a great capability making it easier to validate the connection between your AWS Cloud and RedLine13.

Step 1 : Setup your Key

This is documented in the entry Linking Accounts Setup or directly in line [https://www.redline13.com/AWS/Keys] while configuring your keys.

Step 4. Update your policy as needed.

In this cases we update for ability to help you with SubNets and Security Groups.

A great big thanks to the folks at AWS for this update.  It has already made our life easier.
