The "cloudformation:PreviewStackUpdate" is a unrecognized action on AWS. Maybe you could consider removing it?

And when I set custom domain according to this article https://serverless.com/blog/serverless-api-gateway-domain/, I found this policy list lack some policies of ACM and Route53, maybe you could consider adding some of these.

Yup, same thing happened to me.

I had issues using s3 sync w/ this policy; I enabled all s3 actions & resources as a quick fix. Anyone else have this problem?

I had to add "dynamodb:DescribeTimeToLive" and "dynamodb:UpdateTimeToLive" to allow the creation of a table with TTL settings.
