D-Wave device access error

Question

Dear All,  
  
After loading the required python libraries, i just used the below API  
AwsDevice.get_devices(types=\['SIMULATOR'])  
  
which is giving me error  
  
AccessDeniedException: An error occurred (AccessDeniedException) when calling the SearchDevices operation: User: arn:aws:sts::007842834122:assumed-role/AmazonSageMaker-ExecutionRole-20210702T205988/SageMaker is not authorized to perform: braket:SearchDevices on resource: arn:aws:braket:us-west-2:007842834122:/devices  
  
My query is, which sagemaker role i should assign to my notebook. By default the sagemaker's **"AmazonSageMaker-ExecutionRole-20210702T205988"** role should have been sufficient.  
I did same thing in both east and us-west-2, but same access issue.  
Please help.

Answer

Hello SmartNeeraj, the notebooks require a specific IAM role to function: a role with a name that begins with AmazonBraketServiceSageMakerNotebook. The Braket Developer Guide contains details on how to get the role setup:  https://docs.aws.amazon.com/braket/latest/developerguide/braket-manage-access.html#notebooks-and-roles

Answer

Hello, I believe the error is because the execution role used in your example is incorrect, It should be AmazonBraketServiceSageMakerNotebookRole (i.e., the role that is created for you in the create notebook dialog).

Answer

Could anybody please help me here!!

Answer

Unfortunately, the notebooks don't inherit permissions from the logged in user. They only have the permissions from the role they are launched with. So, your solution was correct. Roles for notebook execution need to have AmazonBraketFullAccess.

Answer

I just gave additional policy to my amazon notebook 'AmazonBraketFullAccess'. Although this is something additional, because the user role already has 'AmazonBraketFullAccess' policy assigned to user's IAM role.
