I'm currently creating a webapp using Flask and DynamoDB.

However, I ran into a really strange error currently that I hope someone might be able to assist me with.

Currently when I run the web app in Pycharm, everything works fine. I'm able to request data from DynamoDB without any issues or errors.

However, the moment I run the exact same file on Ubuntu with Python3, I suddenly encounter a "NoCredentialsError". The exact same file works fine when I run it on Pycharm, but for some reason it's giving me this error only when I try and test it in Ubuntu.

The function that's resulting in this error is simply this:

def selectItem(PK, SK):

    dynamodb = boto3.resource('dynamodb', region_name="us-east-1")
    
    table = dynamodb.Table('testDB')

    response = table.get_item(
        Key={
            'PK': PK,
            'SK': SK
        }
    )
    return response

I have the table and region coded in simply for the sake of context and to keep things simple while testing.

Here is the full Traceback for additional details:
