User not authorized to perform: iam:PassRole on resource error in creating AWS codepipeline

Question

I am trying to set up a continuous delivery pipeline for Lambda function following this tutorial, https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/build-pipeline.html . This is my first time setting it up. Now I am stuck on the step, creating the pipeline and it is giving me the following error when I click on the create pipeline button.

I exactly followed the steps mentioned in the link. Why am I getting that error?

You can see the preview of my configuration here.

What is wrong with my configuration? It is giving me this error as well.

Stack [lambda-pipeline-stack] does not exist

Answer 1

Hope this helps someone - The error basically says that

the lambda has no permission to perform/do iam:PassRole on a specific resource/service you are trying to use/manipulate with lambda.

To solve this on your lamnda policy add this -

{
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": [
        "iam:PassRole"
        ],
      "Resource": "*"
    }
