Hi. I'm creating an AWS IAM user for Pulumi, but with the intent to only run `pulumi preview` . What is the appropriate permission to give to this user? Given that it will just "read"/"describe" elements on the infra, it won't change anything.

Something like `arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/job-function/ViewOnlyAccess`

If ViewOnly is hitting access issues, try `arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/ReadOnlyAccess`

Thanks <@U02FZC2RE0Y>. It worked with `arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/job-function/ViewOnlyAccess` plus privileges to use KMS to decrypt secrets. Many thanks.

You're most welcome! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any more trouble.
