### Prerequisities
Notice of breaking change: Starting v0.13.3, `aws_region` is now a required configuration for DynamoDB Connector. The connector will no longer loop through all AWS regions; instead, it will only use the region passed into the recipe configuration.
In order to execute this source, you need to attach the `AmazonDynamoDBReadOnlyAccess` policy to a user in your AWS account. Then create an API access key and secret for the user.
For a user to be able to create API access key, it needs the following access key permissions. Your AWS account admin can create a policy with these permissions and attach to the user, you can find more details in [Managing access keys for IAM users](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html)
