What AWS role permissions to I need for AWS Cloud Debugging with WebStorm plugin?
I know this is probably not a WebStorm question per se, but I put it here in case anyone else has worked with AWS Cloud Debugging with WebStorm.
I'm working on a Node app that has been uploaded as a Docker image to ECR and which runs as part of an ECS cluster and which connects to DynamoDB.
We can't debug the app locally -- we haven't been able to get the connection from Loopback to DynamoDB Local to work, but that's another story -- and so I thought perhaps I could use Cloud Debugging. I don't know much about Cloud Debugging, but I wanted to try it out to see if it would help with our use case.
I installed the AWS Toolkit for WebStorm (https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/11349-aws-toolkit/) and have tried to start using Cloud Debugging. I have up-to-date credentials (shared credentials stored in ~/.aws/credentials), but it appears my role doesn't have the correct permissions. (see image)

Our AWS administrator wants to know exactly what permissions I need. The only information I could find was here https://docs.aws.amazon.com/toolkit-for-jetbrains/latest/userguide/key-tasks.html#key-tasks-install, but our administrator said that that asks for me to have administrator permissions, which he doesn't want to give me.

that's not a Webstorm question indeed, I'd suggest posting it at stackoverflow.com or, better, submitting a ticket to https://github.com/aws/aws-toolkit-jetbrains/issues
Thanks, I had posted to Stack Overlow, as well as to Amazon, but haven't heard anything back, so was trying here. Good thought about 'issues', I'll try there...
