title: assign IAM user to access only one EC2 instance
body: <p>I am trying to apply policy to allow an IAM user to access only a particular instance of EC2. Here is the policy I am applying:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
  "Statement": [
      {
          "Action": [
              "ec2:StartInstances",
              "ec2:StopInstances",
              "ec2:RebootInstances",
              "ec2:TerminateInstances"
          ],
          "Resource": [
              "arn:aws:ec2:us-east-1:my_account_id:instance/my_instance_id"
          ],
          "Effect": "Allow"
      }
  ]
  } 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, the user is unable to see any EC2 instances on the dashboard. What am I doing wrong?</p>
