AWS Cloud Control v1.26.0 published on Wednesday, Mar 12, 2025 by Pulumi

Adds or updates an inline policy document that is embedded in the specified IAM user. An IAM user can also have a managed policy attached to it. To attach a managed policy to a user, use AWS::IAM::User. To create a new managed policy, use AWS::IAM::ManagedPolicy. For information about policies, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide. For information about the maximum number of inline policies that you can embed in a user, see IAM and quotas in the IAM User Guide.

Create UserPolicy Resource

Resources are created with functions called constructors. To learn more about declaring and configuring resources, see Resources.

Constructor syntax

new UserPolicy(name: string, args: UserPolicyArgs, opts?: CustomResourceOptions);
@overload
def UserPolicy(resource_name: str,
               args: UserPolicyInitArgs,
               opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None)

@overload
def UserPolicy(resource_name: str,
               opts: Optional[ResourceOptions] = None,
               user_name: Optional[str] = None,
               policy_document: Optional[Any] = None,
               policy_name: Optional[str] = None)
func NewUserPolicy(ctx *Context, name string, args UserPolicyArgs, opts ...ResourceOption) (*UserPolicy, error)
public UserPolicy(string name, UserPolicyArgs args, CustomResourceOptions? opts = null)
public UserPolicy(String name, UserPolicyArgs args)
public UserPolicy(String name, UserPolicyArgs args, CustomResourceOptions options)

UserPolicy Resource Properties

To learn more about resource properties and how to use them, see Inputs and Outputs in the Architecture and Concepts docs.

Inputs

In Python, inputs that are objects can be passed either as argument classes or as dictionary literals.

The UserPolicy resource accepts the following input properties:

UserName This property is required. string
The name of the user to associate the policy with. This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-
PolicyDocument object

The policy document. You must provide policies in JSON format in IAM. However, for CFN templates formatted in YAML, you can provide the policy in JSON or YAML format. CFN always converts a YAML policy to JSON format before submitting it to IAM. The regex pattern used to validate this parameter is a string of characters consisting of the following:

  • Any printable ASCII character ranging from the space character (\u0020) through the end of the ASCII character range
  • The printable characters in the Basic Latin and Latin-1 Supplement character set (through \u00FF)
  • The special characters tab (\u0009), line feed (\u000A), and carriage return (\u000D)

Search the CloudFormation User Guide for AWS::IAM::UserPolicy for more information about the expected schema for this property.

PolicyName string
The name of the policy document. This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-
UserName This property is required. string
The name of the user to associate the policy with. This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-
