AWS Glue Job Fails with AccessDeniedException (status 403) in Course Assignment C4_W4_Assignment_1.ipynb

Course Q&A Data Engineering Data Modeling, Transformation, and Serving
1

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on the C4_W4_Assignment_1.ipynb activity from Coursera Platform, where we need to create and run ETL jobs using AWS Glue.

However, every time I try to create or run the job — whether using the recommended commands from the notebook or directly from the AWS Glue Console — the job fails.

In the Job Run Monitoring page, I get the following error message:

Error encountered
AccessDeniedException (status: 403): Unauthorized access for account id 059575063947.
See details
{ 
  "message": "Unauthorized access for account id 059575063947.", 
  "code": "AccessDeniedException", 
  "[Message]": "See error.Message for details.", 
  "time": "2025-10-26T13:58:59.910Z", 
  "requestId": "84e72d55-a3d7-4f35-808b-7652f13fa4bb", 
  "statusCode": 403, 
  "retryable": false, 
  "retryDelay": 47.319091417746584 
}

I’ve double-checked the code and even tried running the job directly from the AWS console, but I always get the same AccessDeniedException.

Has anyone else encountered this issue during this assignment?
Could this be related to IAM permissions or the Glue service role setup?

Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated!
