Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe server uses your local AWS credentials via profile or environment variables. Ensure proper IAM permissions (iam:*) are configured to avoid access denied errors.

fix

Set AWS_PROFILE environment variable or configure default profile.

affects: all

breakingBreaking change between versions <1.0.0 and >=1.0.0: import path changed from 'awslabs_iam_mcp' to 'awslabs_iam_mcp_server'.

fix

Update import statement to 'from awslabs_iam_mcp_server import IAMServer'.

affects: <1.0.0

deprecatedThe parameter 'aws_access_key_id' and 'aws_secret_access_key' are deprecated in favor of using session or profile. They may be removed in future versions.

fix

Use boto3 session or profile_name parameter instead.

affects: >=1.0.0
