Common Amazon Q Developer issues affecting integrations
Overly permissive IAM policies generated with wildcard actions and resources
Amazon Q often generates IAM policies with `*` wildcards for actions or resources as a starting point, which violates the principle of least privilege. These policies should be scoped to specific actions and resource ARNs before being applied in production.
Lambda cold start latency not addressed in generated function configurations
Generated Lambda functions use default memory and timeout settings without considering cold start impact. Functions with heavy initialization code (loading models, establishing DB connections) need provisioned concurrency or memory tuning, which Amazon Q does not configure.
Generated CDK code creates AWS resources without cost estimation or tagging
Amazon Q CDK suggestions deploy resources without cost-tracking tags or budget guardrails, making it easy to inadvertently provision expensive resources (NAT gateways, multi-AZ RDS instances) without visibility into the cost impact.
SendGrid issues we find in Amazon Q Developer apps
Using deprecated v2 Mail Send API
AI tools generate code using the SendGrid v2 API endpoint and format instead of the current v3 Mail Send API, missing features and facing eventual deprecation.
Sender authentication not configured
Generated code sends from addresses without domain authentication (SPF/DKIM), causing emails to fail or be marked as spam by receiving mail servers.
API key has full access instead of restricted permissions
AI tools create and use API keys with full admin access when only Mail Send permission is needed, creating an unnecessary security risk if the key leaks.
