JSON Syntax Error: Fix the JSON syntax error while creating policy-CodePudding

I am following a tutorial in AWS and came across to create a policy. But I am getting a json error. It doesn't tell me much and not sure how to fix it.

I tried to paste it in the VS code to get the idea but vs code is complaining about Invalid escape character in string.json(261)

CodePudding user response：

You are missing the " at cloudformation

it should be

"Action": [
"cloudformation:*",
"iam\;PassRole"
]
