@winjer this permission is only used by a deprecated feature for submitting custom metrics from Lambda functions https://docs.datadoghq.com/serverless/custom_metrics/#deprecated-cloudwatch-logs. The feature was disabled 2019, but left on for existing customers. Can you DM me your Datadog organization name through our slack community https://chat.datadoghq.com/? I can take a quick look on whether you were using this feature or not, if not, I can disable it for you., which would stop the noise (permission error).

I'm going to close this issue, since most of customers (especially new customers) won't need this permission, and we are not going to make code changes in this repo. But as mentioned previously, people running into this error, can either contact support@datadoghq.com or reach out to me or #serverless channel in our community Slack to disable the feature and get rid of the noise.
