Resource Groups supports the following.

  • Action-based policies. For example, you can create a policy that allows users to perform ListGroups operations, but no others.

  • Resource-level permissions. Resource Groups supports using ARNs to specify individual resources in the policy.

  • Authorization based on tags. Resource Groups supports using resource tags in the condition of a policy. For example, you can create a policy that allows Resource Groups users full access to a group that you have tagged.

  • Temporary credentials. Users can assume a role with a policy that allows AWS Resource Groups operations.

Resource Groups doesn't support resource-based policies.
