I'd go with D It has right syntax. it just need the read access permission. References: * https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/reference/dynamodb/get-item.html * https://docs.aws.amazon.com/service-authorization/latest/reference/list_amazondynamodb.html

Selected Answer: D

D) Correct - When using AWS CLI to interact with DynamoDB (or any AWS service), the IAM user's permissions are determined by the IAM policies associated with that user. If the user doesn't have the necessary permissions to perform actions like GetItem, Query, or Scan on the demoman-table, they will receive errors or no data in response.
