EFS require additional permissions

EFS require additional permissions

Issues:

Due to recent AWS changes, you might need to add additional permissions to the relevant IAM policies.

Action required
 We are updating Amazon EFS such that a principal applying tags to an EFS resource on creation (For example, a file system or an access point) must have IAM permissions to apply tags to the resources using the TagResource operation. If a principal attempts to create an EFS resource with tags and does not have permission to add tags, the resource creation will not succeed. For this account, this change will go into effect on June 30, 2023.


Solution:
Add below permission to the IAM Role in any account where you have EFS backup
elasticfilesystem:TagResource
