RDS Proxy: Database menu is empty, can't create proxy

Question

I need my lambda to connect to an Aurora Serverless cluster, through an RDS Proxy. But I can't create the proxy because the Database dropdown menu - in the section under Target group configuration - is empty.

I have several databases. I have access to the databases. They simply don't appear. The form is unusable.

I faced the same problem for a different reason: The following RDS Proxy prerequisites and limitations apply to PostgreSQL: For RDS PostgreSQL, RDS Proxy supports version 10.10 and higher minor versions, and version 11.5 and higher minor versions. And my db was 12.5

There are a few other things why you could not use RDS proxy: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraUserGuide/rds-proxy.html

The problem ended up being that RDS proxy doesn't work with Aurora Serverless databases. This is stated directly in the docs, but I missed it:

You can't use RDS Proxy with Aurora Serverless clusters.
