AWS CloudWatch Alarm, Help Solving Error - Unchecked: Initial alarm creation

Solution 1:

I found the problem...

The error was here:

MetricDimension(
        Name="AutoscalingGroupName",
        Value=Ref("AutoScalingGroup")
    )

The Name should be AutoScalingGroupName NOT AutoscalingGroupName. It will try to generate a new dimension and not correctly pull from the autoscaling group. So it will not throw an error and will spin everything up okay it will just have no data to pull from. Therefore will remain in the INSUFFICENT_DATA state until the end of time.

Capital "S"...
