AWS monitoring setup: Role-based monitoring is not getting data from non-default AWS regions

To monitor non-default AWS regions—Middle East (Bahrain), Africa (Cape Town), Asia Pacific (Hong Kong), and Europe (Milan)—using role-based credentials, you need to modify the IAM STS settings in the AWS IAM console.

  1. In the AWS IAM console, go to Account settings.
  2. In Security Token Service (STS), select Edit to change Region compatibility of session tokens for Global endpoint to Valid in all AWS Regions.
  3. Select Save changes.
