Failed to connect to your instance Access denied by EC2 Instance Connect. Either your AWS credentials are not valid or you do not have access to the EC2 instance.
Hi,
I am getting this error while connecting through the EC2 instance connect and in Session manager if I connect also I am getting a blank screen and someone explain how to solve this issue in a step-by-step format because as I am new to this platform and I am learning all these things now only.

The screen on the right is how the console looks normally. That’s a SSM session.
The access denied is down to you not having accesss. I see you’re using an AWS lab in your screen shot. Instance connect requires you have port 22 directly accessible. I think the access design is by design for this exercise.
The screen on the right looks correct. I don’t believe you have any issues.
Have you followed the documentation to grant proper permission for EC2 Instance Connect access? https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-instance-connect-configure-IAM-role.html

if the screen on right is correct means can i type the code?
On the right screen you can just type. It’s a console session.
Are you able to enter commands in the session?
