AWS Local DynamoDB The security token included in the request is invalid

I am new to AWS and I am trying to perform CRUD operation on Local DynamoDB from a Java program. The Java program is an AWS sample.

I have AWS CLI installed and have set the following configuration - As per AWS documentation, I don't need a real AWS access and secret key for Local DynamoDB.

I have set the following values in in ~/.aws/config and ~/.aws/credentials through running aws configure in the AWS CLI.

[default]
aws_access_key_id = ''
aws_secret_access_key = ''
[default]
region = ap-south-1

I have the Local DYnamoDB JAR running with this.

java -Djava.library.path=./DynamoDBLocal_lib -jar DynamoDBLocal.jar -sharedDb

And the code I'm trying to run is this.

https://github.com/aws-samples/aws-dynamodb-examples/blob/master/src/main/java/com/amazonaws/codesamples/datamodeling/ObjectPersistenceCRUDExample.java

Howevwer, I'm getting this Exception.

AmazonDynamoDBException: The security token included in the request is invalid.

The complete stack is this.

Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in Advance.

Nothing in the cited code points to the DynamoDB local instance from what I can tell. It looks like it is pointing to DynamoDB proper.

You need to change the endpoint to be the local version. Take a look at this page. It has an example of changing the endpoint to localhost:8080.
