如何使用最新版本的 NodeJS AWS SDK 启动 EC2 实例？

Question

I am trying to make a simple Discord bot in Discord.JS that turns on an EC2 instance when a command is run. I've gotten most of it to work, but I cannot seem to get past this one part of code. I've noticed that it keeps on telling me that I don't have permissions to start an EC2 instance even though it's running on the root user (bad security I know, I'm planning to move it soon) which is written in the code (taken from the docs), but I'm not sure what could be causing me to not have the permissions.

Here is the code I am working with

        if (message.content === ">start") {
// Load the AWS SDK for Node.js
            var AWS = require('aws-sdk');
// Set the region
            AWS.config.update({region: 'REGION'});

// Create EC2 service object
            var ec2 = new AWS.EC2({apiVersion: '2016-11-15'});

            var params = {
                InstanceIds: "i-0c5de602d730d1d24",
                DryRun: true
            };
         // Call EC2 to start the selected instances
                ec2.startInstances(params, function(err, data) {
                    if (err && err.code === 'DryRunOperation') {
                        params.DryRun = false;
                        ec2.startInstances(params, function(err, data) {
                            if (err) {
                                console.log("Error", err);
                            } else if (data) {
                                console.log("Success", data.StartingInstances);
                            }
                        });
                    } else {
                        console.log("You don't have permission to start instances.");
                    }
                });
            }
});
} catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
}

Thanks for reading and I hope that I can learn from this so that I don't have similar issues in the future!

Try

InstanceIds: ["i-0c5de602d730d1d24"],
