Create Admin IAM Role

In this step, you will create an IAM Role with Admin rights.

Create Admin IAM Role

  1. Log in to the IAM console by following the link https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/home#/home
  2. In the left navigation bar, select Roles, then click Create role
  3. Under Select type of trusted entity, select AWS Service. Under Choose a use case, select EC2. Then, select Next: Permissions.

    Just to clarify, trusted entity is an entity that is allowed to assume a role. Although what we want for a trusted entity is IAM User No-permission-user, there is no direct option for this, so we choose EC2.
