Cloudwatchfullaccessv2

Question

As cloudwatchfullaccess policy is deprecating we have two usergroups attached for this policy and no iam roles, iam users were attached. Can I directly go ahead and detach this policy and attach cloudwatchfullaccessv2 to these user groups? How can I do testing to make sure this new policy is working fine?

Answer

Hello.

I checked the IAM policy diff.
As you can see from the results below, it seems that "autoscaling:Describe*" and "sns:*" are restricted.
Since I had full access to SNS, I think that if I set it to "CloudWatchFullAccessV2", I would not be able to delete anything.
With AutoScaling, "DescribeLifecycleHooks" is removed, so you will no longer be able to see the lifecycle settings from the screen.
