assumeRoleAction

Type: string

When this Principal is used in an AssumeRole policy, the action to use.

---

env

Type: ResourceEnvironment

The environment this resource belongs to.

For resources that are created and managed by the CDK (generally, those created by creating new class instances like Role, Bucket, etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to; however, for imported resources (those obtained from static methods like fromRoleArn, fromBucketName, etc.), that might be different than the stack they were imported into.

---

grantPrincipal

Type: IPrincipal

The principal to grant permissions to.

---

node

Type: Node

The tree node.

---

policyFragment

Type: PrincipalPolicyFragment

Return the policy fragment that identifies this principal in a Policy.

---

stack

Type: Stack

The stack in which this resource is defined.

---

userArn

Type: string

The user's ARN.

---

userName

Type: string

The user's name.

---

principalAccount?

Type: string (optional)

The AWS account ID of this principal.

Can be undefined when the account is not known (for example, for service principals). Can be a Token - in that case, it's assumed to be AWS::AccountId.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you've removed it from the CDK application or because you've made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

attachInlinePolicy(policy)

public attachInlinePolicy(policy: Policy): void

Parameters

Attaches an inline policy to this principal.

This is the same as calling policy.addToXxx(principal).
