Add a flag to CloudFormation for IAM operations
This error signifies that a CloudFormation template you’re working has IAM sources in it. AWS lets and makes you acknowledge that by including a particular flag while you’re working an AWS CLI cloudformation deploy, create, or replace command.
In my case this:
aws cloudformation deploy
--profile $profile
--stack-name $groupname
--template-file cfn/group_batch_job_admins.yaml
--parameter-overrides
groupnameparam=$groupname
Wanted to change into this:
aws cloudformation deploy
--profile $profile
--capabilities CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM
--stack-name $groupname
--template-file cfn/group_batch_job_admins.yaml
--parameter-overrides
groupnameparam=$groupname
You could find this flag within the documentation right here:
Wait. How come AWS can use underscores in variable names and we will’t?
However I digress.
