The special characters tab (U+0009), line feed (U+000A), and carriage return (U+000D)

Request syntax

Details

An IAM user can also have a managed policy attached to it. To attach a managed policy to a user, use AttachUserPolicy. To create a new managed policy, use CreatePolicy. For information about policies, see Managed Policies and Inline Policies in the IAM User Guide.

For information about limits on the number of inline policies that you can embed in a user, see Limitations on IAM Entities in the IAM User Guide.

Because policy documents can be large, you should use POST rather than GET when calling PutUserPolicy. For general information about using the Query API with IAM, go to Making Query Requests in the IAM User Guide.

Examples

Run this code

# NOT RUN {
# The following command attaches a policy to the IAM user named Bob.

  PolicyName = "AllAccessPolicy",
  UserName = "Bob"
)
# }
