Checks

Operating system

Linux 6.6.87.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2 - Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS

Expected behaviour

I expected that after paying for Kiro Pro ($20 on March 3, 2026), I would be able to link my subscription to my AWS account and assign my IAM Identity Center user "diego pacheco" to use Kiro Pro in VS Code.

Image

Actual behaviour

When I try to add my user in the AWS Console (Kiro > Users and groups), I get this error:
"Failed to create Kiro subscription for 1 user"

The Kiro application "KiroProfile-us-east-1" exists in my IAM Identity Center and is Active, but I cannot assign my user because the subscription is not recognized by AWS.

AWS Account ID: 839477618396
IAM Identity Center user: diego pacheco (dipache181@gmail.com) - configured with MFA
Kiro profile in AWS: KiroProfile-us-east-1 (ARN: arn:aws:codewhisperer:us-east-1:839477618396:profile/CN3CGRAQU4CR)
Login URL: https://d-9066025402.awsapps.com/start

Steps to reproduce

  1. Go to AWS Console → Kiro → Users and groups
  2. Click "Add user"
  3. Select user "diego pacheco" from IAM Identity Center
  4. Choose "Kiro Pro" plan
  5. Click "Assign"
  6. See error: "Failed to create Kiro subscription for 1 user"
