Research direction

Start by inspecting lambda_iam.tf and the deployment configuration to trace every role reference, not just the two replacements mentioned in the issue. Reproduce the deployment Access Denied error and document which role is used and where the custom role must be configured.

Description

Thanks for sharing this, BTW, it will be wonderful when I get it working.

Need to deploy with an existing role due to permission issues.

I replaced the role in lambda_iam.tf (2 times), but I am still getting the "Access Denied" while deploying.

Where else should I add my custom role?

thanks
