I have the same problem. Is there any way to work around this?
shaddu commentedon May 19, 2017
for me it worked when i added a new AWS IAM role = 'lambda_basic_execution' with lambda execution rights
jmeekhof commentedon May 22, 2017
@shaddu Can you elaborate on this a bit? I've created a role, but how do we tell our deployer which role to use?
shaddu commentedon May 23, 2017
@jmeekhof basically that role is expected in python-lambda execution. So if u manually create it and then use lambda deploy. It should work
