I'm getting following error when tried to create topic for amazon sns :

The AWS Access Key Id needs a subscription for the service (Service: AmazonSNS; Status Code: 403; Error Code: OptInRequired; Request ID: 4b507354-d0ff-5769-aa80-3c296a6c7f7d)

I've also created IAM user and subscribed for the SNS service but getting same result every time.
