Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
ec2:DeleteVpcPeeringConnection
Ec2:DeleteVpcPeeringConnection. The user cannot delete a VPC peering connection because the policy does not include this action. Option B, ec2:DescribeVpcPeeringConnectionRouteTables, is not a valid action and does not relate to deletion. Option C, ec2:ModifyVpcPeeringConnectionOptions, is for modifying options, not deletion. Option D, ec2:RejectVpcPeeringConnection, is for rejecting pending connections, not deleting an existing one. Therefore, adding ec2:DeleteVpcPeeringConnection to the policy will resolve the issue.
