HOW DO I TROUBLESHOOT IAM PERMISSION ISSUES FOR THE BILLING AND COST MANAGEMENT
CONSOLE?

4 minute read
0

I want to troubleshoot permission issues with AWS Identity and Access Management
(IAM) users or groups that access my AWS account's billing information.

RESOLUTION

If your IAM users or groups experience permission issues when they try to access
the AWS Billing and Cost Management console, then confirm the following:

* The AWS account root user delegated the access to the billing information.
* The IAM entity has the required IAM policies that allow them to access the
Billing and Cost Management console.
* The AWS Organizations member account doesn't have a service control policy
(SCP) that's blocking access for the IAM entity or root user.
* Multi-factor authentication (MFA) devices are configured to always allow
authentication.
* Permissions boundaries that are attached to IAM entities allow access to the
Billing and Cost Management console.

GRANT THE IAM ENTITY PERMISSION TO ACCESS THE BILLING AND COST MANAGEMENT
CONSOLE

Complete the following steps:

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console with your AWS account root user
credentials.
Important: It's a best practice to use only the root user for tasks that
require root user credentials.
2. In the navigation pane, choose your account name, and then choose Account
ID.
3. Next to IAM user and Role Access to Billing Information, choose Edit.
4. Select Activate IAM Access.
Note: This setting is deactivated by default. For more information,
see Granting access to your billing information and tools.
5. Choose Update.
6. Open the IAM console, and then attach the AWS managed permissions to the IAM
entity.

Note: The IAM entity must have at least one IAM policy attached. For Billing and
Cost Management console policy examples, see Identity-based policy with AWS
Billing. You can also use AWS managed policies such as, AWSBillingReadOnlyAccess
or Billing.

CHECK THAT THE IAM ENTITY ISN'T DENIED ACCESS TO THE BILLING AND COST MANAGEMENT
CONSOLE

If you still experience permission issues, then a policy that denies access to
the Billing and Cost Management console might be attached to the IAM entity.

Use the IAM policy simulator to identify the policy that's preventing access to
the Billing and Cost Management console. Check all applicable policies to
determine whether they deny access to the Billing and Cost Management console.

AN IAM POLICY OR SCP THAT RESTRICTS ACCESS TO SPECIFIC AWS REGIONS IS ATTACHED
TO THE IAM ENTITY

Billing services are global and all actions that you perform in the Billing and
Cost Management console are logged in the us-east-1 Region. If the IAM policy or
SCP denies access to specific Regions, then modify the policy to exempt the
required specific billing permissions. For more information, see AWS: Denies
access to AWS based on the requested Region.

AN IAM POLICY OR SCP INCLUDES A DENY EFFECT AND ALLOWS ACCESS TO SERVICES ONLY
WHEN THE IAM ENTITY IS MFA AUTHENTICATED

If you use AWS multi-factor authentication (MFA), then additional configuration
is required to access to the Billing and Cost Management console. You must
configure your MFA device so that you're always authenticated with an MFA
token.

THE IAM ENTITY HAS A PERMISSIONS BOUNDARY ATTACHED THAT DOESN'T ALLOW ACCESS TO
THE BILLING AND COST MANAGEMENT CONSOLE

Your IAM entity can't access the Billing and Cost Management console when a
permissions boundary is configured to prevent this permission. Your permissions
boundary must have a policy statement with an Allow effect for the required
Billing and Cost Management console permissions.
