I'm working with an HTTP API that uses IAM authorization. While my signed GET requests are working perfectly, I'm running into a 403 Forbidden error when I try to make a signed POST request. The IAM role I'm using seems correct, but I'm at a loss to figure out what's going wrong. I'd like to know: 1) what might be causing this issue? and 2) how can I troubleshoot it on my end? I've looked at the access logs, but they aren't providing any clues about why the request is being denied. I also checked CloudTrail but couldn't find anything relevant regarding this API request. I've figured out the problem was that I wasn't passing the payload correctly when sending the post request. If anyone has any insight into these types of errors or troubleshooting methods, I'd appreciate your help!

From what you shared, it seems like you had the right idea but missed passing the payload with your POST request. The key takeaway here is to ensure that when you're building your request, the payload matches what's expected on the receiving end. It's great to hear you caught that issue!
It sounds like your signing may indeed be off. Do you have any details about the full 403 error? Sometimes the error message might give more specifics that can guide you. Double-check your payload and make sure it’s included properly in the request as well. That can often be a common oversight. Let me know if you see anything unusual in the error response!
