How to Resolve Manually
To resolve this manually, you will need to enable the flow logs in the VPC Dashboard and also construct a destination. This could be an S3 Bucket, but it may be simpler to use CloudWatch Logs for this solution.
Once you have selected your desired VPC within the VPC Dashboard, hit Create Flow Log
You will need to assign a Name to your flow log, choose a CloudWatch destination Log Group (Will need to be constructed before this step) and also ensure you have an IAM role ready to use, which will need permission to publish to the CloudWatch log group.
Once these values have been submitted, you will be able to review your newly created log group in the Flow Logs tab of your VPC and confirm the status is working as expected.
