The voting backend should be easy - fix line 26 to point to the correct topic and create a new lambda function using the provided sample.
In order for a function to post to a topic, it must have the appropriate policy attached to the role. More granular iam policy
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"sns:Publish"
],
"Resource": "arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:025416187662:erjan"
}
]
}
The above example will work, but it has a drawback: in this case, the function can publish messages to any topic, and this is redundant. Try setting the policy so that messages can only be sent to one topic.
