How to resolve: 'Unable to resolve AWS account to use. It must be either configured when you define your CDK or through the environment'

Question

I am trying to run CDK commands to check the diff of my local and remote stack.

I am using the following command.

cdk diff --profile saml

I am getting the following error message

I am looking for ways to resolve this issue.

Removing [profile default] from ~/.aws/config solved it for me.
