AWS JSON syntax error wherever a comma follows curly bracket

Question

I'm following this AWS tutorial. On page 46 where you add permissions to IAM role, the json code causes errors. The error is, Ln 10, Col 1JSON Syntax Error: Fix the JSON syntax error at index 168 line 10 column 1, wherever a comma follows curly bracket. Removing the comma and/or curly bracket doesn't work.

Here's the json I have:

 {
 "Sid": "describeLogGroups",
 "Effect": "Allow",
 "Action": [
 "logs:DescribeLogGroups"
 ],
 "Resource": [
 "arn:aws:logs:<us-west-2>:<MY_ACCOUNT_ID>:log-group:*"
 ]
},
{
 "Sid": "describeLogStreams",
 "Effect": "Allow",
 "Action": [
 "logs:DescribeLogStreams"
 ],
 "Resource": [
 "arn:aws:logs:<us-west-2>:<MY_ACCOUNT_ID>:log-group:*:log-stream:*"
 ]
},
{
 "Sid": "createLogStream",
 "Effect": "Allow",
 "Action": [
 "logs:CreateLogStream",
 "logs:PutRetentionPolicy"
 ],
 "Resource": [
 "arn:aws:logs:<us-west-2>:<MY_ACCOUNT_ID>:loggroup:<SessionManagerLogGroup>:*"
 ]
},
{
 "Sid": "putEvents",
 "Effect": "Allow",
 "Action": [
 "logs:PutLogEvents",
 "logs:GetLogEvents"
 ],
 "Resource": [
     "arn:aws:logs:<us-west-2>:<MY_ACCOUNT_ID>:loggroup:<SessionManagerLogGroup>:log-stream:*"
 ]
},
{
 "Sid": "listBucket",
 "Effect": "Allow",
 "Action": "s3:ListBucket",
 "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::<session-manager-log-bucket123>"
},
{
 "Sid": "putObject",
 "Effect": "Allow",
 "Action": "s3:PutObject",
 "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::<session-manager-log-bucket123>/*"
}
 

What adjustments need to be made to fix the code?

Answer 1

You seem to be missing the Version and Statement portions of your policy:

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": "...",
            "Resource": "..."
        }
    ]
}
