Access · Difficulty 2 of 5 · 15 min
Workflow that stops at step one
A business workflow accepts every request and reports it as started, then fails on its first step with an access error. The queue it writes to and the worker behind it both exist and look healthy. A leftover worker from an earlier release is connected to nothing. Find what is being denied and restore the chain.

Take this challenge on a live account
A live AWS account, already broken, and a clock. You fix it with the provider's own console and command line, then read a report of how you worked. We host the cloud account. Nothing lands on your bill.
