🚀 Executive Summary TL;DR: EC2 instances often lose IAM role permissions because their associated IAM Instance Profile is detached, not due to the role itself. This issue commonly stems from misconfigured automation, such as old CI/CD scripts or Infrastructure as Code drift, which can be diagnosed by auditing CloudTrail events. 🎯 Key Takeaways EC2 instances attach to an IAM Instance Profile, which acts as a container for the IAM Role; understanding this distinction is critical for CLI/SDK/IaC operations. The primary method to identify the culprit behind instance profile disassociation is by auditing AWS CloudTrail for the DisassociateIamInstanceProfile event. To prevent IaC drift and ensure permanent IAM role association, explicitly define the iam\_instance\_profile argument within your Infrastructure as Code definitions (e.g., Terraform aws\_instance resource).
