Pre-requisite: IAM User Permissions

The CloudWatch connectivity requires the AWS access key and secret key along with the specified region endpoint. See https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html for Managing Access Keys for IAM Users.

The policy should correspond to the following permissions:

IAM Policy
{
   "Version": "2012-10-17",
   "Statement": [
        {
           "Effect": "Allow",
           "Action": "ec2:Describe*",
           "Resource": "*"
        },
        {
           "Effect": "Allow",
           "Action": "elasticloadbalancing:Describe*",
           "Resource": "*"
        },
        {
           "Effect": "Allow",
           "Action": [
               "cloudwatch:ListMetrics",
               "cloudwatch:GetMetric*",
               "cloudwatch:Describe*"
            ],
           "Resource": "*"
        },
        {
           "Effect": "Allow",
           "Action": "autoscaling:Describe*",
           "Resource": "*"
        },
        {
