AWS API Gateway error: API Gateway does not have permission to assume the provided role as S3 proxy

There are similar questions but they have answers that I have tried. I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong but any help would appreciated.

Test details:

The Error from a method-execution test; PUT request:

I am following the API Gateway To S3 tutorial (http://docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/integrating-api-with-aws-services-s3.html) and attempting to execute a PUT request.

The API Gateway is in us-east-1 and the S3 bucket in us-east-2.

The created Role: APIGatewayProxyCustom

A policy (pop-date-ingest) is attached that allows PUT request to S3 buckets.

The Role has a trust relationship set:

To fix this, go to the definition of your Role in the IAM and select the Trust Relationships tab. From here edit the policy and for the Principal Service add in apigateway.amazonaws.com as seen below.

This will grant the API Gateway the ability to assume roles to run your function in addition to the existing Lambda permission.
