Error when copying a Rekognition custom-label model: "Cross account access not allowed"

Question

Hi, I met with this "Cross account access not allowed" error when trying to copy a legacy model trained by a previous scientist in my team. I am using console access with my team's AWS account. Could someone advise how to solve this problem? Thank you!

An error occurred (InvalidParameterException) when calling the CopyProjectVersion operation: Cross account access not allowed

Accepted Answer

It could be the case when you are trying to do a cross account copy without the resource based policy (project policy) enabled. You need to define  the IAM resource policy for the trained model to allow cross-account access.
Here is the [blog](https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/machine-learning/announcing-the-launch-of-the-model-copy-feature-for-amazon-rekognition-custom-labels/) talking about Project Policy and steps to do cross account copy.
