Minimal required IAM permissions #225

Open daytonpa opened 5 years ago

daytonpa commented 5 years ago

Working a way to automate load testing on instances by creating an AMI with the bees installed. I created a new user in my AWS account for a bees user to prevent too-permissive access to resources (I'd rather not use mine). I have enabled AmazonEC2FullAccess, AutoScalingFullAccess, and some basic CloudWatch policies, but still am receiving a You are not authorized to perform this operation.

What are the minimal amount of permissions required to start a swarm?
