# Administrator permissions
The following policies allow Amazon Q Developer administrators to perform administrative tasks in the Amazon Q subscription management console and Amazon Q Developer console.
For policies that enable the use of Amazon Q Developer features, see [User permissions](id-based-policy-examples-users.md).
## Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q console
The following example policy grants permissions for a user to perform actions in the Amazon Q console. The Amazon Q console is where you configure Amazon Q's integration with AWS IAM Identity Center and AWS Organizations. Most other Amazon Q Developer-related tasks must be completed in the Amazon Q Developer console. For more information, see [Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q Developer console](#q-admin-setup-admin-users).
**Note**
The `codewhisperer` prefix is a legacy name from a service that merged with Amazon Q Developer. For more information, see [Amazon Q Developer rename - Summary of changes](service-rename.md).

## Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q Developer console
The following example policy grants permissions for a user to access the Amazon Q Developer console. In the Amazon Q Developer console, administrators perform most Amazon Q Developer-related configuration tasks, including tasks related to subscriptions, code references, customizations, and chat plugins. This policy also includes permissions to create and configure customer managed KMS keys.
There are a few Amazon Q Developer Pro tasks that administrators must complete through the Amazon Q console (instead of the Amazon Q Developer console). For more information, see [Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q console](#q-admin-setup-admin-users-sub).
**Note**
To create customizations or plugins, your Amazon Q Developer Pro administrator will require additional permissions.
For permissions needed for customizations, see the Prerequisites for customizations section.
For permissions needed for plugins, see [Allow administrators to configure plugins](#id-based-policy-examples-admin-plugins).
You will need one of two policies to use the Amazon Q Developer console. The policy you need depends on if you're setting up Amazon Q Developer for the first time or if you're configuring a legacy Amazon CodeWhisperer profile.
**Note**
The `codewhisperer` prefix is a legacy name from a service that merged with Amazon Q Developer. For more information, see [Amazon Q Developer rename - Summary of changes](service-rename.md).
For new administrators of Amazon Q Developer, use the following policy:

## Allow administrators to create customizations
The following policy grants administrators permission to create and manage customizations in Amazon Q Developer.
To configure customizations in the Amazon Q Developer console, your Amazon Q Developer administrator will require access to the Amazon Q Developer console. For more information, see [Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q Developer console](#q-admin-setup-admin-users).
**Note**
In the following policy, the IAM service will report errors on the `codeconnections:ListOwners` and `codeconnections:ListRepositories` permissions. Create the policy with these permissions anyway. The permissions are required, and the policy will work despite the errors.
**Note**
The `codewhisperer` prefix is a legacy name from a service that merged with Amazon Q Developer. For more information, see [Amazon Q Developer rename - Summary of changes](service-rename.md).
In the following example, replace *account number* with your AWS account number.

## Allow administrators to configure plugins from one provider
The following example policy grants an administrator permission to configure plugins from one provider, specified by the plugin ARN with the name of the plugin provider and a wildcard character (`*`). To use this policy, replace the following in the ARN in the Resource field:
+ *AWS-region* – The AWS Region where the plugin will be created.
+ *AWS-account-ID* – The AWS account ID of the account where your plugin is configured.
+ *plugin-provider* – The name of the plugin provider that you want to allow configuration for, like `CloudZero`, `Datadog`, or `Wiz`. The plugin provider field is case sensitive.
**Note**
In order to access the Amazon Q Developer console, administrators also need the permissions defined in [Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q Developer console](#q-admin-setup-admin-users).
