I have the same error

[stefanbund]

Credentials error stems from two potential places. One is the URL you submitted to Facebook, which hosts to your page on AWS. The second is whether the table you added into your IAM role exists in dynamo. Then you must be sure that your code references the name of the table that you have and I a.m., assuming it is already in dynamo.

Thanks, I copied the URL from AWS to Facebook, I modified Table name in the code to match my Table in DynamoDb, but I still have the error. Do I have to add: Access key ID, and Secret access key ,as credentials, in order to access DynamoDb?

Tatiana, you won't need to code in your credentials, as you wrote. These two lines help your javascript connect to AWS and operate in an authenticated way:

var appId = '120636118298132'; //from facebook var roleArn = 'arn:aws:iam::165021830876:role/spring2017Dynamodb'; //from AWS IAM

You also used Facebook's authentication code at the bottom of the example, which provide the login page (and thus the credentials you'll need, which actually come from FB)

Thanks; I will show you my code in class...
