Hey friends :),

I am trying to 'amplify init' my Android Project and I get stuck with the following error:

I have granted 'AWSElasticBeanstalkFullAccess' to the aws profile used.

I would be immensely thankful for any help.

Thank You very much in advance.

Yours, Luca

This is caused by the IAM user not being authorised to perform the iam:CreateRole action needed in the CloudFormation stack.

I was facing the same issue, here's how I resolved it.
When I was doing 'aws configure' and creating a profile, I was choosing the region incorrectly(not the one I chose when I was setting up my account).
Created another profile with right region.
Did 'amplify init', worked like charm.
