SES dashboard is displaying an Unknown Error

Question

When I log into my dashboard with my IAM account, I get a red banner that says:
"Unknown Error. Request failed with unknown error, ensure that you have the necessary permissions and that all fields have correct values."

My user has AmazonSESFullAccess permissions. I don't recall seeing this error the last time I had logged in, which admittedly was quite a while ago.  My web app is not sending some emails which caused to log into SES, and this is the first thing I see. I don't know if it's related to my problem but I thought this would be a good place to start.

Accepted Answer

Hi!  Good question.  You may be running into issues on the AWS Console where even listing/displaying certain things still ties back to a Describe or List API (Think view and read) permissions from AWS.  Only having AmazonSESFullAccess will only have actions contained within SES (SES:*).  I would typically recommend attaching another AWS Managed policy on your user such as ViewOnlyAccess or ReadOnlyAccess.  Keep in mind ViewOnlyAccess is a limited set of View/Metadata Permissions while ReadOnlyAccess has possible Data read as well.  These policies may help you avoid Console view issues that may prompt the errors you are facing.
