Getting "InvalidAccessKeyId: The AWS Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records." after updating Amplify Users IAM Keys

Question

I recently "Created a new Access Key" for my AWS Amplify IAM user, and disabled the old key. I also changed how I was authenticating to AWS (using an IAM user now instead of previously a SSO Federated user).

Now when I run something like:

amplify api push

I get:

InvalidAccessKeyId: The AWS Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records.

I tried re-running:

amplify configure

I used aws configure to set the new Access Key to the default profile, but still no luck.

How can I resolve this?

Answer 1

I ended up checking local-aws-info.json in the amplify/config directory and noticed that the "useProfile" and "profileName" keys weren't accurate anymore.

To fix I ran:

amplify configure project

And once that finished, I ran:

amplify pull however, this was probably only necessary due to the hacking around I did trying to fix the error originally.
