SAM Deploy Blocked

Question

I am using Visual Studio Code and the AWS Toolkit.

I have two account (for different projects), let's call them account_number_1 and account_number_2, and I am unable to deploy my SAM project to the second account. The error that I get is:

An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the CreateChangeSet operation: User: arn:aws:iam::<account_number_1>:user/amplify-elys is not authorized to perform: cloudformation:CreateChangeSet on resource: arn:aws:cloudformation:us-west-1:<account_number_1>:stack/aws-sam-cli-managed-default/* because no identity-based policy allows the cloudformation:CreateChangeSet action

I changed the profile using the AWS Toolkit to the second account, and verified that the aws_access_key_id and the aws_secret_access_key are correct.

Is there a SAM configuration file that needs to be changed? Why is the SAM CLI picking up a user from account_number_1?
