Client: Aws\Iam\IamClient
Service ID: iam
Version: 2010-05-08

This page describes the parameters and results for the operations of the AWS Identity and Access Management (2010-05-08), and shows how to use the Aws\Iam\IamClient object to call the described operations. This documentation is specific to the 2010-05-08 API version of the service.

Operation Summary

Each of the following operations can be created from a client using $client->getCommand('CommandName'), where "CommandName" is the name of one of the following operations. Note: a command is a value that encapsulates an operation and the parameters used to create an HTTP request.

You can also create and send a command immediately using the magic methods available on a client object: $client->commandName(/* parameters */). You can send the command asynchronously (returning a promise) by appending the word "Async" to the operation name: $client->commandNameAsync(/* parameters */).

    'UserName' => 'Alice',
]);

ChangePassword

$result = $client->changePassword([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->changePasswordAsync([/* ... */]);

Changes the password of the IAM user who is calling this operation. This operation can be performed using the CLI, the Amazon Web Services API, or the My Security Credentials page in the Amazon Web Services Management Console. The Amazon Web Services account root user password is not affected by this operation.

Use UpdateLoginProfile to use the CLI, the Amazon Web Services API, or the Users page in the IAM console to change the password for any IAM user. For more information about modifying passwords, see Managing passwords in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->changePassword([
    'NewPassword' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'OldPassword' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

    'OldPassword' => '3s0K_;xh4~8XXI',
]);

CreateAccessKey

$result = $client->createAccessKey([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createAccessKeyAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a new Amazon Web Services secret access key and corresponding Amazon Web Services access key ID for the specified user. The default status for new keys is Active.

If you do not specify a user name, IAM determines the user name implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID signing the request. This operation works for access keys under the Amazon Web Services account. Consequently, you can use this operation to manage Amazon Web Services account root user credentials. This is true even if the Amazon Web Services account has no associated users.

For information about quotas on the number of keys you can create, see IAM and STS quotas in the IAM User Guide.

To ensure the security of your Amazon Web Services account, the secret access key is accessible only during key and user creation. You must save the key (for example, in a text file) if you want to be able to access it again. If a secret key is lost, you can delete the access keys for the associated user and then create new keys.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createAccessKey([
    'UserName' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

Members
UserName
Type: string

The name of the IAM user that the new key will belong to.

CreateOpenIDConnectProvider

$result = $client->createOpenIDConnectProvider([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createOpenIDConnectProviderAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an IAM entity to describe an identity provider (IdP) that supports OpenID Connect (OIDC).

The OIDC provider that you create with this operation can be used as a principal in a role's trust policy. Such a policy establishes a trust relationship between Amazon Web Services and the OIDC provider.

If you are using an OIDC identity provider from Google, Facebook, or Amazon Cognito, you don't need to create a separate IAM identity provider. These OIDC identity providers are already built-in to Amazon Web Services and are available for your use. Instead, you can move directly to creating new roles using your identity provider. To learn more, see Creating a role for web identity or OpenID connect federation in the IAM User Guide.

When you create the IAM OIDC provider, you specify the following:

  • The URL of the OIDC identity provider (IdP) to trust

  • A list of client IDs (also known as audiences) that identify the application or applications allowed to authenticate using the OIDC provider

  • A list of tags that are attached to the specified IAM OIDC provider

  • A list of thumbprints of one or more server certificates that the IdP uses

You get all of this information from the OIDC IdP you want to use to access Amazon Web Services.

Amazon Web Services secures communication with OIDC identity providers (IdPs) using our library of trusted root certificate authorities (CAs) to verify the JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) endpoint's TLS certificate. If your OIDC IdP relies on a certificate that is not signed by one of these trusted CAs, only then we secure communication using the thumbprints set in the IdP's configuration.

The trust for the OIDC provider is derived from the IAM provider that this operation creates. Therefore, it is best to limit access to the CreateOpenIDConnectProvider operation to highly privileged users.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createOpenIDConnectProvider([
    'ClientIDList' => ['<string>', ...],
    'Tags' => [
        [
            'Key' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
            'Value' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
        ],
        // ...
    ],
    'ThumbprintList' => ['<string>', ...],
    'Url' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ClientIDList
Type: Array of strings

Provides a list of client IDs, also known as audiences. When a mobile or web app registers with an OpenID Connect provider, they establish a value that identifies the application. This is the value that's sent as the client_id parameter on OAuth requests.

You can register multiple client IDs with the same provider. For example, you might have multiple applications that use the same OIDC provider. You cannot register more than 100 client IDs with a single IAM OIDC provider.

There is no defined format for a client ID. The CreateOpenIDConnectProviderRequest operation accepts client IDs up to 255 characters long.

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

A list of tags that you want to attach to the new IAM OpenID Connect (OIDC) provider. Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created.

ThumbprintList
Type: Array of strings

A list of server certificate thumbprints for the OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity provider's server certificates. Typically this list includes only one entry. However, IAM lets you have up to five thumbprints for an OIDC provider. This lets you maintain multiple thumbprints if the identity provider is rotating certificates.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, IAM will retrieve and use the top intermediate certificate authority (CA) thumbprint of the OpenID Connect identity provider server certificate.

The server certificate thumbprint is the hex-encoded SHA-1 hash value of the X.509 certificate used by the domain where the OpenID Connect provider makes its keys available. It is always a 40-character string.

For example, assume that the OIDC provider is server.example.com and the provider stores its keys at https://keys.server.example.com/openid-connect. In that case, the thumbprint string would be the hex-encoded SHA-1 hash value of the certificate used by https://keys.server.example.com.

For more information about obtaining the OIDC provider thumbprint, see Obtaining the thumbprint for an OpenID Connect provider in the IAM user Guide.

Url
Required: Yes
Type: string

The URL of the identity provider. The URL must begin with https:// and should correspond to the iss claim in the provider's OpenID Connect ID tokens. Per the OIDC standard, path components are allowed but query parameters are not. Typically the URL consists of only a hostname, like https://server.example.org or https://example.com. The URL should not contain a port number.

You cannot register the same provider multiple times in a single Amazon Web Services account. If you try to submit a URL that has already been used for an OpenID Connect provider in the Amazon Web Services account, you will get an error.

Result Syntax

[
    'OpenIDConnectProviderArn' => '<string>',

This operation creates a policy version with a version identifier of v1 and sets v1 as the policy's default version. For more information about policy versions, see Versioning for managed policies in the IAM User Guide.

As a best practice, you can validate your IAM policies. To learn more, see Validating IAM policies in the IAM User Guide.

For more information about managed policies in general, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createPolicy([
    'Description' => '<string>',
    'Path' => '<string>',
    'PolicyDocument' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

    ],
]);

Parameter Details

Members
Description
Type: string

A friendly description of the policy.

Typically used to store information about the permissions defined in the policy. For example, "Grants access to production DynamoDB tables."

The policy description is immutable. After a value is assigned, it cannot be changed.

Path
Type: string

The path for the policy.

For more information about paths, see IAM identifiers in the IAM User Guide.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/).

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

You cannot use an asterisk (*) in the path name.

PolicyDocument
Required: Yes
Type: string

The JSON policy document that you want to use as the content for the new policy.

You must provide policies in JSON format in IAM. However, for CloudFormation templates formatted in YAML, you can provide the policy in JSON or YAML format. CloudFormation always converts a YAML policy to JSON format before submitting it to IAM.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

To learn more about JSON policy grammar, see Grammar of the IAM JSON policy language in the IAM User Guide.

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)

PolicyName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The friendly name of the policy.

IAM user, group, role, and policy names must be unique within the account. Names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create resources named both "MyResource" and "myresource".

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

A list of tags that you want to attach to the new IAM customer managed policy. Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created.

CreatePolicyVersion

$result = $client->createPolicyVersion([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createPolicyVersionAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a new version of the specified managed policy. To update a managed policy, you create a new policy version. A managed policy can have up to five versions. If the policy has five versions, you must delete an existing version using DeletePolicyVersion before you create a new version.

Optionally, you can set the new version as the policy's default version. The default version is the version that is in effect for the IAM users, groups, and roles to which the policy is attached.

For more information about managed policy versions, see Versioning for managed policies in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createPolicyVersion([

        // ...
    ],
]);

Parameter Details

Members
AssumeRolePolicyDocument
Required: Yes
Type: string

The trust relationship policy document that grants an entity permission to assume the role.

In IAM, you must provide a JSON policy that has been converted to a string. However, for CloudFormation templates formatted in YAML, you can provide the policy in JSON or YAML format. CloudFormation 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)

Upon success, the response includes the same trust policy in JSON format.

Description
Type: string

A description of the role.

MaxSessionDuration
Type: int

The maximum session duration (in seconds) that you want to set for the specified role. If you do not specify a value for this setting, the default value of one hour is applied. This setting can have a value from 1 hour to 12 hours.

Anyone who assumes the role from the CLI or API can use the DurationSeconds API parameter or the duration-seconds CLI parameter to request a longer session. The MaxSessionDuration setting determines the maximum duration that can be requested using the DurationSeconds parameter. If users don't specify a value for the DurationSeconds parameter, their security credentials are valid for one hour by default. This applies when you use the AssumeRole* API operations or the assume-role* CLI operations but does not apply when you use those operations to create a console URL. For more information, see Using IAM roles in the IAM User Guide.

Path
Type: string

The path to the role. For more information about paths, see IAM Identifiers in the IAM User Guide.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/).

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

PermissionsBoundary
Type: string

The ARN of the managed policy that is used to set the permissions boundary for the role.

A permissions boundary policy defines the maximum permissions that identity-based policies can grant to an entity, but does not grant permissions. Permissions boundaries do not define the maximum permissions that a resource-based policy can grant to an entity. To learn more, see Permissions boundaries for IAM entities in the IAM User Guide.

For more information about policy types, see Policy types in the IAM User Guide.

RoleName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The name of the role to create.

IAM user, group, role, and policy names must be unique within the account. Names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create resources named both "MyResource" and "myresource".

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: _+=,.@-

Tags
Type: Array of Tag structures

A list of tags that you want to attach to the new role. Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

CreateSAMLProvider

$result = $client->createSAMLProvider([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createSAMLProviderAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an IAM resource that describes an identity provider (IdP) that supports SAML 2.0.

The SAML provider resource that you create with this operation can be used as a principal in an IAM role's trust policy. Such a policy can enable federated users who sign in using the SAML IdP to assume the role. You can create an IAM role that supports Web-based single sign-on (SSO) to the Amazon Web Services Management Console or one that supports API access to Amazon Web Services.

When you create the SAML provider resource, you upload a SAML metadata document that you get from your IdP. That document includes the issuer's name, expiration information, and keys that can be used to validate the SAML authentication response (assertions) that the IdP sends. You must generate the metadata document using the identity management software that is used as your organization's IdP.

This operation requires Signature Version 4.

For more information, see Enabling SAML 2.0 federated users to access the Amazon Web Services Management Console and About SAML 2.0-based federation in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createSAMLProvider([
    'Name' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

CreateServiceLinkedRole

$result = $client->createServiceLinkedRole([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createServiceLinkedRoleAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates an IAM role that is linked to a specific Amazon Web Services service. The service controls the attached policies and when the role can be deleted. This helps ensure that the service is not broken by an unexpectedly changed or deleted role, which could put your Amazon Web Services resources into an unknown state. Allowing the service to control the role helps improve service stability and proper cleanup when a service and its role are no longer needed. For more information, see Using service-linked roles in the IAM User Guide.

To attach a policy to this service-linked role, you must make the request using the Amazon Web Services service that depends on this role.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createServiceLinkedRole([
    'AWSServiceName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'CustomSuffix' => '<string>',
    'Description' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

Members
AWSServiceName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The service principal for the Amazon Web Services service to which this role is attached. You use a string similar to a URL but without the http:// in front. For example: elasticbeanstalk.amazonaws.com.

Service principals are unique and case-sensitive. To find the exact service principal for your service-linked role, see Amazon Web Services services that work with IAM in the IAM User Guide. Look for the services that have Yes in the Service-Linked Role column. Choose the Yes link to view the service-linked role documentation for that service.

CustomSuffix
Type: string

A string that you provide, which is combined with the service-provided prefix to form the complete role name. If you make multiple requests for the same service, then you must supply a different CustomSuffix for each request. Otherwise the request fails with a duplicate role name error. For example, you could add -1 or -debug to the suffix.

Some services do not support the CustomSuffix parameter. If you provide an optional suffix and the operation fails, try the operation again without the suffix.

Description
Type: string

Example 1: To create an IAM user

The following create-user command creates an IAM user named Bob in the current account.

$result = $client->createUser([
    'UserName' => 'Bob',
]);

Result syntax:

[
    'User' => [
        'Arn' => 'arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/Bob',
        'CreateDate' => ,
        'Path' => '/',
        'UserId' => 'AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE',
        'UserName' => 'Bob',
    ],
]

CreateVirtualMFADevice

$result = $client->createVirtualMFADevice([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->createVirtualMFADeviceAsync([/* ... */]);

Creates a new virtual MFA device for the Amazon Web Services account. After creating the virtual MFA, use EnableMFADevice to attach the MFA device to an IAM user. For more information about creating and working with virtual MFA devices, see Using a virtual MFA device in the IAM User Guide.

For information about the maximum number of MFA devices you can create, see IAM and STS quotas in the IAM User Guide.

The seed information contained in the QR code and the Base32 string should be treated like any other secret access information. In other words, protect the seed information as you would your Amazon Web Services access keys or your passwords. After you provision your virtual device, you should ensure that the information is destroyed following secure procedures.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->createVirtualMFADevice([
    'Path' => '<string>',

DeleteOpenIDConnectProvider

$result = $client->deleteOpenIDConnectProvider([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteOpenIDConnectProviderAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes an OpenID Connect identity provider (IdP) resource object in IAM.

Deleting an IAM OIDC provider resource does not update any roles that reference the provider as a principal in their trust policies. Any attempt to assume a role that references a deleted provider fails.

This operation is idempotent; it does not fail or return an error if you call the operation for a provider that does not exist.

DeletePolicy

$result = $client->deletePolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deletePolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes the specified managed policy.

Before you can delete a managed policy, you must first detach the policy from all users, groups, and roles that it is attached to. In addition, you must delete all the policy's versions. The following steps describe the process for deleting a managed policy:

  • Detach the policy from all users, groups, and roles that the policy is attached to, using DetachUserPolicy, DetachGroupPolicy, or DetachRolePolicy. To list all the users, groups, and roles that a policy is attached to, use ListEntitiesForPolicy.

  • Delete all versions of the policy using DeletePolicyVersion. To list the policy's versions, use ListPolicyVersions. You cannot use DeletePolicyVersion to delete the version that is marked as the default version. You delete the policy's default version in the next step of the process.

  • Delete the policy (this automatically deletes the policy's default version) using this operation.

For information about managed policies, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->deletePolicy([
    'PolicyArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

DeleteSAMLProvider

$result = $client->deleteSAMLProvider([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteSAMLProviderAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes a SAML provider resource in IAM.

Deleting the provider resource from IAM does not update any roles that reference the SAML provider resource's ARN as a principal in their trust policies. Any attempt to assume a role that references a non-existent provider resource ARN fails.

This operation requires Signature Version 4.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->deleteSAMLProvider([
    'SAMLProviderArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

DeleteServerCertificate

$result = $client->deleteServerCertificate([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteServerCertificateAsync([/* ... */]);

Deletes the specified server certificate.

For more information about working with server certificates, see Working with server certificates in the IAM User Guide. This topic also includes a list of Amazon Web Services services that can use the server certificates that you manage with IAM.

If you are using a server certificate with Elastic Load Balancing, deleting the certificate could have implications for your application. If Elastic Load Balancing doesn't detect the deletion of bound certificates, it may continue to use the certificates. This could cause Elastic Load Balancing to stop accepting traffic. We recommend that you remove the reference to the certificate from Elastic Load Balancing before using this command to delete the certificate. For more information, see DeleteLoadBalancerListeners in the Elastic Load Balancing API Reference.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->deleteServerCertificate([
    'ServerCertificateName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

DeleteServiceLinkedRole

$result = $client->deleteServiceLinkedRole([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->deleteServiceLinkedRoleAsync([/* ... */]);

Submits a service-linked role deletion request and returns a DeletionTaskId, which you can use to check the status of the deletion. Before you call this operation, confirm that the role has no active sessions and that any resources used by the role in the linked service are deleted. If you call this operation more than once for the same service-linked role and an earlier deletion task is not complete, then the DeletionTaskId of the earlier request is returned.

If you submit a deletion request for a service-linked role whose linked service is still accessing a resource, then the deletion task fails. If it fails, the GetServiceLinkedRoleDeletionStatus operation returns the reason for the failure, usually including the resources that must be deleted. To delete the service-linked role, you must first remove those resources from the linked service and then submit the deletion request again. Resources are specific to the service that is linked to the role. For more information about removing resources from a service, see the Amazon Web Services documentation for your service.

For more information about service-linked roles, see Roles terms and concepts: Amazon Web Services service-linked role in the IAM User Guide.

GenerateOrganizationsAccessReport

$result = $client->generateOrganizationsAccessReport([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->generateOrganizationsAccessReportAsync([/* ... */]);

Generates a report for service last accessed data for Organizations. You can generate a report for any entities (organization root, organizational unit, or account) or policies in your organization.

To call this operation, you must be signed in using your Organizations management account credentials. You can use your long-term IAM user or root user credentials, or temporary credentials from assuming an IAM role. SCPs must be enabled for your organization root. You must have the required IAM and Organizations permissions. For more information, see Refining permissions using service last accessed data in the IAM User Guide.

You can generate a service last accessed data report for entities by specifying only the entity's path. This data includes a list of services that are allowed by any service control policies (SCPs) that apply to the entity.

You can generate a service last accessed data report for a policy by specifying an entity's path and an optional Organizations policy ID. This data includes a list of services that are allowed by the specified SCP.

For each service in both report types, the data includes the most recent account activity that the policy allows to account principals in the entity or the entity's children. For important information about the data, reporting period, permissions required, troubleshooting, and supported Regions see Reducing permissions using service last accessed data in the IAM User Guide.

The data includes all attempts to access Amazon Web Services, not just the successful ones. This includes all attempts that were made using the Amazon Web Services Management Console, the Amazon Web Services API through any of the SDKs, or any of the command line tools. An unexpected entry in the service last accessed data does not mean that an account has been compromised, because the request might have been denied. Refer to your CloudTrail logs as the authoritative source for information about all API calls and whether they were successful or denied access. For more information, see Logging IAM events with CloudTrail in the IAM User Guide.

This operation returns a JobId. Use this parameter in the GetOrganizationsAccessReport operation to check the status of the report generation. To check the status of this request, use the JobId parameter in the GetOrganizationsAccessReport operation and test the JobStatus response parameter. When the job is complete, you can retrieve the report.

To generate a service last accessed data report for entities, specify an entity path without specifying the optional Organizations policy ID. The type of entity that you specify determines the data returned in the report.

  • Root – When you specify the organizations root as the entity, the resulting report lists all of the services allowed by SCPs that are attached to your root. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in your organization except the management account, because the management account is not limited by SCPs.

  • OU – When you specify an organizational unit (OU) as the entity, the resulting report lists all of the services allowed by SCPs that are attached to the OU and its parents. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in the OU or its children. This data excludes the management account, because the management account is not limited by SCPs.

  • management account – When you specify the management account, the resulting report lists all Amazon Web Services services, because the management account is not limited by SCPs. For each service, the report includes data for only the management account.

  • Account – When you specify another account as the entity, the resulting report lists all of the services allowed by SCPs that are attached to the account and its parents. For each service, the report includes data for only the specified account.

To generate a service last accessed data report for policies, specify an entity path and the optional Organizations policy ID. The type of entity that you specify determines the data returned for each service.

  • Root – When you specify the root entity and a policy ID, the resulting report lists all of the services that are allowed by the specified SCP. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in your organization to which the SCP applies. This data excludes the management account, because the management account is not limited by SCPs. If the SCP is not attached to any entities in the organization, then the report will return a list of services with no data.

  • OU – When you specify an OU entity and a policy ID, the resulting report lists all of the services that are allowed by the specified SCP. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in the OU or its children to which the SCP applies. This means that other accounts outside the OU that are affected by the SCP might not be included in the data. This data excludes the management account, because the management account is not limited by SCPs. If the SCP is not attached to the OU or one of its children, the report will return a list of services with no data.

  • management account – When you specify the management account, the resulting report lists all Amazon Web Services services, because the management account is not limited by SCPs. If you specify a policy ID in the CLI or API, the policy is ignored. For each service, the report includes data for only the management account.

  • Account – When you specify another account entity and a policy ID, the resulting report lists all of the services that are allowed by the specified SCP. For each service, the report includes data for only the specified account. This means that other accounts in the organization that are affected by the SCP might not be included in the data. If the SCP is not attached to the account, the report will return a list of services with no data.

Service last accessed data does not use other policy types when determining whether a principal could access a service. These other policy types include identity-based policies, resource-based policies, access control lists, IAM permissions boundaries, and STS assume role policies. It only applies SCP logic. For more about the evaluation of policy types, see Evaluating policies in the IAM User Guide.

For more information about service last accessed data, see Reducing policy scope by viewing user activity in the IAM User Guide.

Examples

Example 1: To generate a service last accessed data report for an organizational unit

The following operation generates a report for the organizational unit ou-rge0-awexample

$result = $client->generateOrganizationsAccessReport([
    'EntityPath' => 'o-a1b2c3d4e5/r-f6g7h8i9j0example/ou-1a2b3c-k9l8m7n6o5example',

GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetails

$result = $client->generateServiceLastAccessedDetails([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->generateServiceLastAccessedDetailsAsync([/* ... */]);

Generates a report that includes details about when an IAM resource (user, group, role, or policy) was last used in an attempt to access Amazon Web Services services. Recent activity usually appears within four hours. IAM reports activity for at least the last 400 days, or less if your Region began supporting this feature within the last year. For more information, see Regions where data is tracked. For more information about services and actions for which action last accessed information is displayed, see IAM action last accessed information services and actions.

The service last accessed data includes all attempts to access an Amazon Web Services API, not just the successful ones. This includes all attempts that were made using the Amazon Web Services Management Console, the Amazon Web Services API through any of the SDKs, or any of the command line tools. An unexpected entry in the service last accessed data does not mean that your account has been compromised, because the request might have been denied. Refer to your CloudTrail logs as the authoritative source for information about all API calls and whether they were successful or denied access. For more information, see Logging IAM events with CloudTrail in the IAM User Guide.

The GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetails operation returns a JobId. Use this parameter in the following operations to retrieve the following details from your report:

  • GetServiceLastAccessedDetails – Use this operation for users, groups, roles, or policies to list every Amazon Web Services service that the resource could access using permissions policies. For each service, the response includes information about the most recent access attempt.

    The JobId returned by GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetail must be used by the same role within a session, or by the same user when used to call GetServiceLastAccessedDetail.

  • GetServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntities – Use this operation for groups and policies to list information about the associated entities (users or roles) that attempted to access a specific Amazon Web Services service.

To check the status of the GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetails request, use the JobId parameter in the same operations and test the JobStatus response parameter.

For additional information about the permissions policies that allow an identity (user, group, or role) to access specific services, use the ListPoliciesGrantingServiceAccess operation.

Service last accessed data does not use other policy types when determining whether a resource could access a service. These other policy types include resource-based policies, access control lists, Organizations policies, IAM permissions boundaries, and STS assume role policies. It only applies permissions policy logic. For more about the evaluation of policy types, see Evaluating policies in the IAM User Guide.

For more information about service and action last accessed data, see Reducing permissions using service last accessed data in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->generateServiceLastAccessedDetails([
    'Arn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'Granularity' => 'SERVICE_LEVEL|ACTION_LEVEL',
]);

Parameter Details

Members
Arn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The ARN of the IAM resource (user, group, role, or managed policy) used to generate information about when the resource was last used in an attempt to access an Amazon Web Services service.

Granularity
Type: string

The level of detail that you want to generate. You can specify whether you want to generate information about the last attempt to access services or actions. If you specify service-level granularity, this operation generates only service data. If you specify action-level granularity, it generates service and action data. If you don't include this optional parameter, the operation generates service data.

Result Syntax

Result Details

Members
JobId
Type: string

The JobId that you can use in the GetServiceLastAccessedDetails or GetServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntities operations. The JobId returned by GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetail must be used by the same role within a session, or by the same user when used to call GetServiceLastAccessedDetail.

Errors

NoSuchEntityException:

The request was rejected because it referenced a resource entity that does not exist. The error message describes the resource.

InvalidInputException:

The request was rejected because an invalid or out-of-range value was supplied for an input parameter.

Examples

Example 1: To generate a service last accessed data report for a policy

The following operation generates a report for the policy: ExamplePolicy1

$result = $client->generateServiceLastAccessedDetails([

GetAccessKeyLastUsed

$result = $client->getAccessKeyLastUsed([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getAccessKeyLastUsedAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves information about when the specified access key was last used. The information includes the date and time of last use, along with the Amazon Web Services service and Region that were specified in the last request made with that key.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->getAccessKeyLastUsed([
    'AccessKeyId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
AccessKeyId
Required: Yes
Type: string

The identifier of an access key.

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters that can consist of any upper or lowercased letter or digit.

Result Syntax

GetAccountAuthorizationDetails

$result = $client->getAccountAuthorizationDetails([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getAccountAuthorizationDetailsAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves information about all IAM users, groups, roles, and policies in your Amazon Web Services account, including their relationships to one another. Use this operation to obtain a snapshot of the configuration of IAM permissions (users, groups, roles, and policies) in your account.

Policies returned by this operation are URL-encoded compliant with RFC 3986. You can use a URL decoding method to convert the policy back to plain JSON text. For example, if you use Java, you can use the decode method of the java.net.URLDecoder utility class in the Java SDK. Other languages and SDKs provide similar functionality.

You can optionally filter the results using the Filter parameter. You can paginate the results using the MaxItems and Marker parameters.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->getAccountAuthorizationDetails([
    'Filter' => ['<string>', ...],
    'Marker' => '<string>',
    'MaxItems' => <integer>,
]);

Parameter Details

Members
Filter
Type: Array of strings

A list of entity types used to filter the results. Only the entities that match the types you specify are included in the output. Use the value LocalManagedPolicy to include customer managed policies.

The format for this parameter is a comma-separated (if more than one) list of strings. Each string value in the list must be one of the valid values listed below.

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

Gets a list of all of the context keys referenced in the input policies. The policies are supplied as a list of one or more strings. To get the context keys from policies associated with an IAM user, group, or role, use GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy.

Context keys are variables maintained by Amazon Web Services and its services that provide details about the context of an API query request. Context keys can be evaluated by testing against a value specified in an IAM policy. Use GetContextKeysForCustomPolicy to understand what key names and values you must supply when you call SimulateCustomPolicy. Note that all parameters are shown in unencoded form here for clarity but must be URL encoded to be included as a part of a real HTML request.

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)

ContextKeyNames
Type: Array of strings

The list of context keys that are referenced in the input policies.

Errors

InvalidInputException:

The request was rejected because an invalid or out-of-range value was supplied for an input parameter.

GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy

$result = $client->getContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getContextKeysForPrincipalPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Gets a list of all of the context keys referenced in all the IAM policies that are attached to the specified IAM entity. The entity can be an IAM user, group, or role. If you specify a user, then the request also includes all of the policies attached to groups that the user is a member of.

You can optionally include a list of one or more additional policies, specified as strings. If you want to include only a list of policies by string, use GetContextKeysForCustomPolicy instead.

Note: This operation discloses information about the permissions granted to other users. If you do not want users to see other user's permissions, then consider allowing them to use GetContextKeysForCustomPolicy instead.

Context keys are variables maintained by Amazon Web Services and its services that provide details about the context of an API query request. Context keys can be evaluated by testing against a value in an IAM policy. Use GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy to understand what key names and values you must supply when you call SimulatePrincipalPolicy.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->getContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy([
    'PolicyInputList' => ['<string>', ...],
    'PolicySourceArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

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)

PolicySourceArn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The ARN of a user, group, or role whose policies contain the context keys that you want listed. If you specify a user, the list includes context keys that are found in all policies that are attached to the user. The list also includes all groups that the user is a member of. If you pick a group or a role, then it includes only those context keys that are found in policies attached to that entity. Note that all parameters are shown in unencoded form here for clarity, but must be URL encoded to be included as a part of a real HTML request.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

GetGroupPolicy

$result = $client->getGroupPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getGroupPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves the specified inline policy document that is embedded in the specified IAM group.

Policies returned by this operation are URL-encoded compliant with RFC 3986. You can use a URL decoding method to convert the policy back to plain JSON text. For example, if you use Java, you can use the decode method of the java.net.URLDecoder utility class in the Java SDK. Other languages and SDKs provide similar functionality.

An IAM group can also have managed policies attached to it. To retrieve a managed policy document that is attached to a group, use GetPolicy to determine the policy's default version, then use GetPolicyVersion to retrieve the policy document.

For more information about policies, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.

GetLoginProfile

$result = $client->getLoginProfile([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getLoginProfileAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves the user name for the specified IAM user. A login profile is created when you create a password for the user to access the Amazon Web Services Management Console. If the user does not exist or does not have a password, the operation returns a 404 (NoSuchEntity) error.

If you create an IAM user with access to the console, the CreateDate reflects the date you created the initial password for the user.

If you create an IAM user with programmatic access, and then later add a password for the user to access the Amazon Web Services Management Console, the CreateDate reflects the initial password creation date. A user with programmatic access does not have a login profile unless you create a password for the user to access the Amazon Web Services Management Console.

GetOrganizationsAccessReport

$result = $client->getOrganizationsAccessReport([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getOrganizationsAccessReportAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves the service last accessed data report for Organizations that was previously generated using the GenerateOrganizationsAccessReport operation. This operation retrieves the status of your report job and the report contents.

Depending on the parameters that you passed when you generated the report, the data returned could include different information. For details, see GenerateOrganizationsAccessReport.

To call this operation, you must be signed in to the management account in your organization. SCPs must be enabled for your organization root. You must have permissions to perform this operation. For more information, see Refining permissions using service last accessed data in the IAM User Guide.

For each service that principals in an account (root user, IAM users, or IAM roles) could access using SCPs, the operation returns details about the most recent access attempt. If there was no attempt, the service is listed without details about the most recent attempt to access the service. If the operation fails, it returns the reason that it failed.

By default, the list is sorted by service namespace.

Parameter Syntax

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

SortKey
Type: string

The key that is used to sort the results. If you choose the namespace key, the results are returned in alphabetical order. If you choose the time key, the results are sorted numerically by the date and time.

GetServiceLastAccessedDetails

$result = $client->getServiceLastAccessedDetails([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getServiceLastAccessedDetailsAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves a service last accessed report that was created using the GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetails operation. You can use the JobId parameter in GetServiceLastAccessedDetails to retrieve the status of your report job. When the report is complete, you can retrieve the generated report. The report includes a list of Amazon Web Services services that the resource (user, group, role, or managed policy) can access.

Service last accessed data does not use other policy types when determining whether a resource could access a service. These other policy types include resource-based policies, access control lists, Organizations policies, IAM permissions boundaries, and STS assume role policies. It only applies permissions policy logic. For more about the evaluation of policy types, see Evaluating policies in the IAM User Guide.

For each service that the resource could access using permissions policies, the operation returns details about the most recent access attempt. If there was no attempt, the service is listed without details about the most recent attempt to access the service. If the operation fails, the GetServiceLastAccessedDetails operation returns the reason that it failed.

The GetServiceLastAccessedDetails operation returns a list of services. This list includes the number of entities that have attempted to access the service and the date and time of the last attempt. It also returns the ARN of the following entity, depending on the resource ARN that you used to generate the report:

  • User – Returns the user ARN that you used to generate the report

  • Group – Returns the ARN of the group member (user) that last attempted to access the service

  • Role – Returns the role ARN that you used to generate the report

  • Policy – Returns the ARN of the user or role that last used the policy to attempt to access the service

By default, the list is sorted by service namespace.

If you specified ACTION_LEVEL granularity when you generated the report, this operation returns service and action last accessed data. This includes the most recent access attempt for each tracked action within a service. Otherwise, this operation returns only service data.

For more information about service and action last accessed data, see Reducing permissions using service last accessed data in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

GetServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntities

$result = $client->getServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntities([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntitiesAsync([/* ... */]);

After you generate a group or policy report using the GenerateServiceLastAccessedDetails operation, you can use the JobId parameter in GetServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntities. This operation retrieves the status of your report job and a list of entities that could have used group or policy permissions to access the specified service.

  • Group – For a group report, this operation returns a list of users in the group that could have used the group’s policies in an attempt to access the service.

  • Policy – For a policy report, this operation returns a list of entities (users or roles) that could have used the policy in an attempt to access the service.

You can also use this operation for user or role reports to retrieve details about those entities.

If the operation fails, the GetServiceLastAccessedDetailsWithEntities operation returns the reason that it failed.

By default, the list of associated entities is sorted by date, with the most recent access listed first.

GetUser

$result = $client->getUser([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getUserAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves information about the specified IAM user, including the user's creation date, path, unique ID, and ARN.

If you do not specify a user name, IAM determines the user name implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID used to sign the request to this operation.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->getUser([
    'UserName' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

Members
UserName
Type: string

The name of the user to get information about.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to the user making the request. 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: _+=,.@-

Members
User
Required: Yes
Type: User structure

A structure containing details about the IAM user.

Due to a service issue, password last used data does not include password use from May 3, 2018 22:50 PDT to May 23, 2018 14:08 PDT. This affects last sign-in dates shown in the IAM console and password last used dates in the IAM credential report, and returned by this operation. If users signed in during the affected time, the password last used date that is returned is the date the user last signed in before May 3, 2018. For users that signed in after May 23, 2018 14:08 PDT, the returned password last used date is accurate.

You can use password last used information to identify unused credentials for deletion. For example, you might delete users who did not sign in to Amazon Web Services in the last 90 days. In cases like this, we recommend that you adjust your evaluation window to include dates after May 23, 2018. Alternatively, if your users use access keys to access Amazon Web Services programmatically you can refer to access key last used information because it is accurate for all dates.

Errors

NoSuchEntityException:

The request was rejected because it referenced a resource entity that does not exist. The error message describes the resource.

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

Examples

Example 1: To get information about an IAM user

The following command gets information about the IAM user named Bob.

$result = $client->getUser([
    'UserName' => 'Bob',
]);

Result syntax:

        'UserName' => 'Bob',
    ],
]

GetUserPolicy

$result = $client->getUserPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->getUserPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves the specified inline policy document that is embedded in the specified IAM user.

Policies returned by this operation are URL-encoded compliant with RFC 3986. You can use a URL decoding method to convert the policy back to plain JSON text. For example, if you use Java, you can use the decode method of the java.net.URLDecoder utility class in the Java SDK. Other languages and SDKs provide similar functionality.

An IAM user can also have managed policies attached to it. To retrieve a managed policy document that is attached to a user, use GetPolicy to determine the policy's default version. Then use GetPolicyVersion to retrieve the policy document.

For more information about policies, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->getUserPolicy([
    'PolicyName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'UserName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
PolicyName
Required: Yes
Type: string

PolicyDocument
Required: Yes
Type: string

The policy document.

IAM stores policies in JSON format. However, resources that were created using CloudFormation templates can be formatted in YAML. CloudFormation always converts a YAML policy to JSON format before submitting it to IAM.

PolicyName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The name of the policy.

UserName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The user the policy is associated with.

Errors

NoSuchEntityException:

ListAccessKeys

$result = $client->listAccessKeys([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listAccessKeysAsync([/* ... */]);

Returns information about the access key IDs associated with the specified IAM user. If there is none, the operation returns an empty list.

Although each user is limited to a small number of keys, you can still paginate the results using the MaxItems and Marker parameters.

If the UserName is not specified, the user name is determined implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID used to sign the request. If a temporary access key is used, then UserName is required. If a long-term key is assigned to the user, then UserName is not required.

This operation works for access keys under the Amazon Web Services account. If the Amazon Web Services account has no associated users, the root user returns it's own access key IDs by running this command.

To ensure the security of your Amazon Web Services account, the secret access key is accessible only during key and user creation.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->listAccessKeys([
    'Marker' => '<string>',
    'MaxItems' => <integer>,
    'UserName' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

UserName
Type: string

The name of the user.

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: _+=,.@-

AttachedPolicies
Type: Array of AttachedPolicy structures

A list of the attached policies.

IsTruncated
Type: boolean

A flag that indicates whether there are more items to return. If your results were truncated, you can make a subsequent pagination request using the Marker request parameter to retrieve more items. Note that IAM might return fewer than the MaxItems number of results even when there are more results available. We recommend that you check IsTruncated after every call to ensure that you receive all your results.

Marker
Type: string

When IsTruncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

Errors

NoSuchEntityException:

The request was rejected because it referenced a resource entity that does not exist. The error message describes the resource.

InvalidInputException:

The request was rejected because an invalid or out-of-range value was supplied for an input parameter.

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

ListEntitiesForPolicy

$result = $client->listEntitiesForPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listEntitiesForPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Lists all IAM users, groups, and roles that the specified managed policy is attached to.

You can use the optional EntityFilter parameter to limit the results to a particular type of entity (users, groups, or roles). For example, to list only the roles that are attached to the specified policy, set EntityFilter to Role.

You can paginate the results using the MaxItems and Marker parameters.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->listEntitiesForPolicy([
    'EntityFilter' => 'User|Role|Group|LocalManagedPolicy|AWSManagedPolicy',

Parameter Details

Members
EntityFilter
Type: string

The entity type to use for filtering the results.

For example, when EntityFilter is Role, only the roles that are attached to the specified policy are returned. This parameter is optional. If it is not included, all attached entities (users, groups, and roles) are returned. The argument for this parameter must be one of the valid values listed below.

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

PathPrefix
Type: string

The path prefix for filtering the results. This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/), listing all entities.

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

PolicyArn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM policy for which you want the versions.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

PolicyUsageFilter
Type: string

The policy usage method to use for filtering the results.

To list only permissions policies, set PolicyUsageFilter to PermissionsPolicy. To list only the policies used to set permissions boundaries, set the value to PermissionsBoundary.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, all policies are returned.

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

RoleName
Required: Yes
Type: string

The name of the role to list instance profiles for.

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: _+=,.@-

ListPoliciesGrantingServiceAccess

$result = $client->listPoliciesGrantingServiceAccess([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listPoliciesGrantingServiceAccessAsync([/* ... */]);

Retrieves a list of policies that the IAM identity (user, group, or role) can use to access each specified service.

This operation does not use other policy types when determining whether a resource could access a service. These other policy types include resource-based policies, access control lists, Organizations policies, IAM permissions boundaries, and STS assume role policies. It only applies permissions policy logic. For more about the evaluation of policy types, see Evaluating policies in the IAM User Guide.

The list of policies returned by the operation depends on the ARN of the identity that you provide.

  • User – The list of policies includes the managed and inline policies that are attached to the user directly. The list also includes any additional managed and inline policies that are attached to the group to which the user belongs.

  • Group – The list of policies includes only the managed and inline policies that are attached to the group directly. Policies that are attached to the group’s user are not included.

  • Role – The list of policies includes only the managed and inline policies that are attached to the role.

For each managed policy, this operation returns the ARN and policy name. For each inline policy, it returns the policy name and the entity to which it is attached. Inline policies do not have an ARN. For more information about these policy types, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.

Policies that are attached to users and roles as permissions boundaries are not returned. To view which managed policy is currently used to set the permissions boundary for a user or role, use the GetUser or GetRole operations.

Parameter Syntax

A flag that indicates whether there are more items to return. If your results were truncated, you can make a subsequent pagination request using the Marker request parameter to retrieve more items. Note that IAM might return fewer than the MaxItems number of results even when there are more results available. We recommend that you check IsTruncated after every call to ensure that you receive all your results.

Marker
Type: string

When IsTruncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

ServerCertificateMetadataList
Required: Yes
Type: Array of ServerCertificateMetadata structures

A list of server certificates.

Errors

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

ListServiceSpecificCredentials

$result = $client->listServiceSpecificCredentials([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listServiceSpecificCredentialsAsync([/* ... */]);

Returns information about the service-specific credentials associated with the specified IAM user. If none exists, the operation returns an empty list. The service-specific credentials returned by this operation are used only for authenticating the IAM user to a specific service. For more information about using service-specific credentials to authenticate to an Amazon Web Services service, see Set up service-specific credentials in the CodeCommit User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->listServiceSpecificCredentials([
    'ServiceName' => '<string>',
    'UserName' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

Members
ServiceName
Type: string

Filters the returned results to only those for the specified Amazon Web Services service. If not specified, then Amazon Web Services returns service-specific credentials for all services.

UserName
Type: string

The name of the user whose service-specific credentials you want information about. If this value is not specified, then the operation assumes the user whose credentials are used to call the operation.

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: _+=,.@-

Result Syntax

[
    'ServiceSpecificCredentials' => [
        [
            'CreateDate' => <DateTime>,
            'ServiceName' => '<string>',

]

Result Details

Members
ServiceSpecificCredentials
Type: Array of ServiceSpecificCredentialMetadata structures

A list of structures that each contain details about a service-specific credential.

Errors

NoSuchEntityException:

The request was rejected because it referenced a resource entity that does not exist. The error message describes the resource.

ServiceNotSupportedException:

The specified service does not support service-specific credentials.

ListSigningCertificates

$result = $client->listSigningCertificates([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->listSigningCertificatesAsync([/* ... */]);

Returns information about the signing certificates associated with the specified IAM user. If none exists, the operation returns an empty list.

Although each user is limited to a small number of signing certificates, you can still paginate the results using the MaxItems and Marker parameters.

If the UserName field is not specified, the user name is determined implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID used to sign the request for this operation. This operation works for access keys under the Amazon Web Services account. Consequently, you can use this operation to manage Amazon Web Services account root user credentials even if the Amazon Web Services account has no associated users.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->listSigningCertificates([
    'Marker' => '<string>',
    'MaxItems' => <integer>,
    'UserName' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

Members
Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

UserName
Type: string

The name of the IAM user whose signing certificates you want to examine.

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: _+=,.@-

PutRolePermissionsBoundary

$result = $client->putRolePermissionsBoundary([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putRolePermissionsBoundaryAsync([/* ... */]);

Adds or updates the policy that is specified as the IAM role's permissions boundary. You can use an Amazon Web Services managed policy or a customer managed policy to set the boundary for a role. Use the boundary to control the maximum permissions that the role can have. Setting a permissions boundary is an advanced feature that can affect the permissions for the role.

You cannot set the boundary for a service-linked role.

Policies used as permissions boundaries do not provide permissions. You must also attach a permissions policy to the role. To learn how the effective permissions for a role are evaluated, see IAM JSON policy evaluation logic in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putRolePermissionsBoundary([
    'PermissionsBoundary' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'RoleName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

PutRolePolicy

$result = $client->putRolePolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->putRolePolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Adds or updates an inline policy document that is embedded in the specified IAM role.

When you embed an inline policy in a role, the inline policy is used as part of the role's access (permissions) policy. The role's trust policy is created at the same time as the role, using CreateRole . You can update a role's trust policy using UpdateAssumeRolePolicy . For more information about roles, see IAM roles in the IAM User Guide.

A role can also have a managed policy attached to it. To attach a managed policy to a role, use AttachRolePolicy . 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 the maximum number of inline policies that you can embed with a role, see IAM and STS quotas in the IAM User Guide.

Because policy documents can be large, you should use POST rather than GET when calling PutRolePolicy. For general information about using the Query API with IAM, see Making query requests in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->putRolePolicy([
    'PolicyDocument' => '<string>', // REQUIRED

SetSecurityTokenServicePreferences

$result = $client->setSecurityTokenServicePreferences([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->setSecurityTokenServicePreferencesAsync([/* ... */]);

Sets the specified version of the global endpoint token as the token version used for the Amazon Web Services account.

By default, Security Token Service (STS) is available as a global service, and all STS requests go to a single endpoint at https://sts.amazonaws.com. Amazon Web Services recommends using Regional STS endpoints to reduce latency, build in redundancy, and increase session token availability. For information about Regional endpoints for STS, see Security Token Service endpoints and quotas in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

If you make an STS call to the global endpoint, the resulting session tokens might be valid in some Regions but not others. It depends on the version that is set in this operation. Version 1 tokens are valid only in Amazon Web Services Regions that are available by default. These tokens do not work in manually enabled Regions, such as Asia Pacific (Hong Kong). Version 2 tokens are valid in all Regions. However, version 2 tokens are longer and might affect systems where you temporarily store tokens. For information, see Activating and deactivating STS in an Amazon Web Services Region in the IAM User Guide.

To view the current session token version, see the GlobalEndpointTokenVersion entry in the response of the GetAccountSummary operation.

SimulateCustomPolicy

$result = $client->simulateCustomPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->simulateCustomPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Simulate how a set of IAM policies and optionally a resource-based policy works with a list of API operations and Amazon Web Services resources to determine the policies' effective permissions. The policies are provided as strings.

The simulation does not perform the API operations; it only checks the authorization to determine if the simulated policies allow or deny the operations. You can simulate resources that don't exist in your account.

If you want to simulate existing policies that are attached to an IAM user, group, or role, use SimulatePrincipalPolicy instead.

Context keys are variables that are maintained by Amazon Web Services and its services and which provide details about the context of an API query request. You can use the Condition element of an IAM policy to evaluate context keys. To get the list of context keys that the policies require for correct simulation, use GetContextKeysForCustomPolicy.

If the output is long, you can use MaxItems and Marker parameters to paginate the results.

The IAM policy simulator evaluates statements in the identity-based policy and the inputs that you provide during simulation. The policy simulator results can differ from your live Amazon Web Services environment. We recommend that you check your policies against your live Amazon Web Services environment after testing using the policy simulator to confirm that you have the desired results. For more information about using the policy simulator, see Testing IAM policies with the IAM policy simulator in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->simulateCustomPolicy([
    'ActionNames' => ['<string>', ...], // REQUIRED
    'CallerArn' => '<string>',
    'ContextEntries' => [

]);

Parameter Details

Members
ActionNames
Required: Yes
Type: Array of strings

A list of names of API operations to evaluate in the simulation. Each operation is evaluated against each resource. Each operation must include the service identifier, such as iam:CreateUser. This operation does not support using wildcards (*) in an action name.

CallerArn
Type: string

The ARN of the IAM user that you want to use as the simulated caller of the API operations. CallerArn is required if you include a ResourcePolicy so that the policy's Principal element has a value to use in evaluating the policy.

You can specify only the ARN of an IAM user. You cannot specify the ARN of an assumed role, federated user, or a service principal.

ContextEntries
Type: Array of ContextEntry structures

A list of context keys and corresponding values for the simulation to use. Whenever a context key is evaluated in one of the simulated IAM permissions policies, the corresponding value is supplied.

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

PermissionsBoundaryPolicyInputList
Type: Array of strings

The IAM permissions boundary policy to simulate. The permissions boundary sets the maximum permissions that an IAM entity can have. You can input only one permissions boundary when you pass a policy to this operation. For more information about permissions boundaries, see Permissions boundaries for IAM entities in the IAM User Guide. The policy input is specified as a string that contains the complete, valid JSON text of a permissions boundary policy.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

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)

PolicyInputList
Required: Yes
Type: Array of strings

A list of policy documents to include in the simulation. Each document is specified as a string containing the complete, valid JSON text of an IAM policy. Do not include any resource-based policies in this parameter. Any resource-based policy must be submitted with the ResourcePolicy parameter. The policies cannot be "scope-down" policies, such as you could include in a call to GetFederationToken or one of the AssumeRole API operations. In other words, do not use policies designed to restrict what a user can do while using the temporary credentials.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

  • The special characters tab (\u0009), line feed (\u000A), and carriage return (\u000D)

ResourceArns
Type: Array of strings

A list of ARNs of Amazon Web Services resources to include in the simulation. If this parameter is not provided, then the value defaults to * (all resources). Each API in the ActionNames parameter is evaluated for each resource in this list. The simulation determines the access result (allowed or denied) of each combination and reports it in the response. You can simulate resources that don't exist in your account.

The simulation does not automatically retrieve policies for the specified resources. If you want to include a resource policy in the simulation, then you must include the policy as a string in the ResourcePolicy parameter.

If you include a ResourcePolicy, then it must be applicable to all of the resources included in the simulation or you receive an invalid input error.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

Simulation of resource-based policies isn't supported for IAM roles.

ResourceHandlingOption
Type: string

Specifies the type of simulation to run. Different API operations that support resource-based policies require different combinations of resources. By specifying the type of simulation to run, you enable the policy simulator to enforce the presence of the required resources to ensure reliable simulation results. If your simulation does not match one of the following scenarios, then you can omit this parameter. The following list shows each of the supported scenario values and the resources that you must define to run the simulation.

Each of the Amazon EC2 scenarios requires that you specify instance, image, and security group resources. If your scenario includes an EBS volume, then you must specify that volume as a resource. If the Amazon EC2 scenario includes VPC, then you must supply the network interface resource. If it includes an IP subnet, then you must specify the subnet resource. For more information on the Amazon EC2 scenario options, see Supported platforms in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

ResourceOwner
Type: string

An ARN representing the Amazon Web Services account ID that specifies the owner of any simulated resource that does not identify its owner in the resource ARN. Examples of resource ARNs include an S3 bucket or object. If ResourceOwner is specified, it is also used as the account owner of any ResourcePolicy included in the simulation. If the ResourceOwner parameter is not specified, then the owner of the resources and the resource policy defaults to the account of the identity provided in CallerArn. This parameter is required only if you specify a resource-based policy and account that owns the resource is different from the account that owns the simulated calling user CallerArn.

The ARN for an account uses the following syntax: arn:aws:iam::AWS-account-ID:root. For example, to represent the account with the 112233445566 ID, use the following ARN: arn:aws:iam::112233445566-ID:root.

ResourcePolicy
Type: string

A resource-based policy to include in the simulation provided as a string. Each resource in the simulation is treated as if it had this policy attached. You can include only one resource-based policy in a simulation.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

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)

Simulation of resource-based policies isn't supported for IAM roles.

Result Details

Members
EvaluationResults
Type: Array of EvaluationResult structures

The results of the simulation.

IsTruncated
Type: boolean

A flag that indicates whether there are more items to return. If your results were truncated, you can make a subsequent pagination request using the Marker request parameter to retrieve more items. Note that IAM might return fewer than the MaxItems number of results even when there are more results available. We recommend that you check IsTruncated after every call to ensure that you receive all your results.

Marker
Type: string

When IsTruncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

Errors

InvalidInputException:

The request was rejected because an invalid or out-of-range value was supplied for an input parameter.

PolicyEvaluationException:

The request failed because a provided policy could not be successfully evaluated. An additional detailed message indicates the source of the failure.

SimulatePrincipalPolicy

$result = $client->simulatePrincipalPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->simulatePrincipalPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Simulate how a set of IAM policies attached to an IAM entity works with a list of API operations and Amazon Web Services resources to determine the policies' effective permissions. The entity can be an IAM user, group, or role. If you specify a user, then the simulation also includes all of the policies that are attached to groups that the user belongs to. You can simulate resources that don't exist in your account.

You can optionally include a list of one or more additional policies specified as strings to include in the simulation. If you want to simulate only policies specified as strings, use SimulateCustomPolicy instead.

You can also optionally include one resource-based policy to be evaluated with each of the resources included in the simulation for IAM users only.

The simulation does not perform the API operations; it only checks the authorization to determine if the simulated policies allow or deny the operations.

Note: This operation discloses information about the permissions granted to other users. If you do not want users to see other user's permissions, then consider allowing them to use SimulateCustomPolicy instead.

Context keys are variables maintained by Amazon Web Services and its services that provide details about the context of an API query request. You can use the Condition element of an IAM policy to evaluate context keys. To get the list of context keys that the policies require for correct simulation, use GetContextKeysForPrincipalPolicy.

If the output is long, you can use the MaxItems and Marker parameters to paginate the results.

The IAM policy simulator evaluates statements in the identity-based policy and the inputs that you provide during simulation. The policy simulator results can differ from your live Amazon Web Services environment. We recommend that you check your policies against your live Amazon Web Services environment after testing using the policy simulator to confirm that you have the desired results. For more information about using the policy simulator, see Testing IAM policies with the IAM policy simulator in the IAM User Guide.

]);

Parameter Details

Members
ActionNames
Required: Yes
Type: Array of strings

A list of names of API operations to evaluate in the simulation. Each operation is evaluated for each resource. Each operation must include the service identifier, such as iam:CreateUser.

CallerArn
Type: string

The ARN of the IAM user that you want to specify as the simulated caller of the API operations. If you do not specify a CallerArn, it defaults to the ARN of the user that you specify in PolicySourceArn, if you specified a user. If you include both a PolicySourceArn (for example, arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/David) and a CallerArn (for example, arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/Bob), the result is that you simulate calling the API operations as Bob, as if Bob had David's policies.

You can specify only the ARN of an IAM user. You cannot specify the ARN of an assumed role, federated user, or a service principal.

CallerArn is required if you include a ResourcePolicy and the PolicySourceArn is not the ARN for an IAM user. This is required so that the resource-based policy's Principal element has a value to use in evaluating the policy.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

ContextEntries
Type: Array of ContextEntry structures

A list of context keys and corresponding values for the simulation to use. Whenever a context key is evaluated in one of the simulated IAM permissions policies, the corresponding value is supplied.

Marker
Type: string

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

MaxItems
Type: int

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

PermissionsBoundaryPolicyInputList
Type: Array of strings

The IAM permissions boundary policy to simulate. The permissions boundary sets the maximum permissions that the entity can have. You can input only one permissions boundary when you pass a policy to this operation. An IAM entity can only have one permissions boundary in effect at a time. For example, if a permissions boundary is attached to an entity and you pass in a different permissions boundary policy using this parameter, then the new permissions boundary policy is used for the simulation. For more information about permissions boundaries, see Permissions boundaries for IAM entities in the IAM User Guide. The policy input is specified as a string containing the complete, valid JSON text of a permissions boundary policy.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

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)

PolicyInputList
Type: Array of strings

An optional list of additional policy documents to include in the simulation. Each document is specified as a string containing the complete, valid JSON text of an IAM policy.

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)

PolicySourceArn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a user, group, or role whose policies you want to include in the simulation. If you specify a user, group, or role, the simulation includes all policies that are associated with that entity. If you specify a user, the simulation also includes all policies that are attached to any groups the user belongs to.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

ResourceArns
Type: Array of strings

A list of ARNs of Amazon Web Services resources to include in the simulation. If this parameter is not provided, then the value defaults to * (all resources). Each API in the ActionNames parameter is evaluated for each resource in this list. The simulation determines the access result (allowed or denied) of each combination and reports it in the response. You can simulate resources that don't exist in your account.

The simulation does not automatically retrieve policies for the specified resources. If you want to include a resource policy in the simulation, then you must include the policy as a string in the ResourcePolicy parameter.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

Simulation of resource-based policies isn't supported for IAM roles.

ResourceHandlingOption
Type: string

Specifies the type of simulation to run. Different API operations that support resource-based policies require different combinations of resources. By specifying the type of simulation to run, you enable the policy simulator to enforce the presence of the required resources to ensure reliable simulation results. If your simulation does not match one of the following scenarios, then you can omit this parameter. The following list shows each of the supported scenario values and the resources that you must define to run the simulation.

Each of the Amazon EC2 scenarios requires that you specify instance, image, and security group resources. If your scenario includes an EBS volume, then you must specify that volume as a resource. If the Amazon EC2 scenario includes VPC, then you must supply the network interface resource. If it includes an IP subnet, then you must specify the subnet resource. For more information on the Amazon EC2 scenario options, see Supported platforms in the Amazon EC2 User Guide.

  • EC2-VPC-InstanceStore

    instance, image, security group, network interface

  • EC2-VPC-InstanceStore-Subnet

    instance, image, security group, network interface, subnet

  • EC2-VPC-EBS

    instance, image, security group, network interface, volume

  • EC2-VPC-EBS-Subnet

    instance, image, security group, network interface, subnet, volume

ResourceOwner
Type: string

An Amazon Web Services account ID that specifies the owner of any simulated resource that does not identify its owner in the resource ARN. Examples of resource ARNs include an S3 bucket or object. If ResourceOwner is specified, it is also used as the account owner of any ResourcePolicy included in the simulation. If the ResourceOwner parameter is not specified, then the owner of the resources and the resource policy defaults to the account of the identity provided in CallerArn. This parameter is required only if you specify a resource-based policy and account that owns the resource is different from the account that owns the simulated calling user CallerArn.

ResourcePolicy
Type: string

A resource-based policy to include in the simulation provided as a string. Each resource in the simulation is treated as if it had this policy attached. You can include only one resource-based policy in a simulation.

The maximum length of the policy document that you can pass in this operation, including whitespace, is listed below. To view the maximum character counts of a managed policy with no whitespaces, see IAM and STS character quotas.

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)

Simulation of resource-based policies isn't supported for IAM roles.

EvaluationResults
Type: Array of EvaluationResult structures

The results of the simulation.

IsTruncated
Type: boolean

A flag that indicates whether there are more items to return. If your results were truncated, you can make a subsequent pagination request using the Marker request parameter to retrieve more items. Note that IAM might return fewer than the MaxItems number of results even when there are more results available. We recommend that you check IsTruncated after every call to ensure that you receive all your results.

Marker
Type: string

When IsTruncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

Errors

NoSuchEntityException:

The request was rejected because it referenced a resource entity that does not exist. The error message describes the resource.

InvalidInputException:

The request was rejected because an invalid or out-of-range value was supplied for an input parameter.

PolicyEvaluationException:

The request failed because a provided policy could not be successfully evaluated. An additional detailed message indicates the source of the failure.

TagInstanceProfile

$result = $client->tagInstanceProfile([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->tagInstanceProfileAsync([/* ... */]);

Adds one or more tags to an IAM instance profile. If a tag with the same key name already exists, then that tag is overwritten with the new value.

Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value. By assigning tags to your resources, you can do the following:

  • Administrative grouping and discovery - Attach tags to resources to aid in organization and search. For example, you could search for all resources with the key name Project and the value MyImportantProject. Or search for all resources with the key name Cost Center and the value 41200.

  • Access control - Include tags in IAM user-based and resource-based policies. You can use tags to restrict access to only an IAM instance profile that has a specified tag attached. For examples of policies that show how to use tags to control access, see Control access using IAM tags in the IAM User Guide.

  • If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

  • Amazon Web Services always interprets the tag Value as a single string. If you need to store an array, you can store comma-separated values in the string. However, you must interpret the value in your code.

InvalidInputException:

The request was rejected because an invalid or out-of-range value was supplied for an input parameter.

LimitExceededException:

The request was rejected because it attempted to create resources beyond the current Amazon Web Services account limits. The error message describes the limit exceeded.

ConcurrentModificationException:

The request was rejected because multiple requests to change this object were submitted simultaneously. Wait a few minutes and submit your request again.

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

TagMFADevice

$result = $client->tagMFADevice([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->tagMFADeviceAsync([/* ... */]);

Adds one or more tags to an IAM virtual multi-factor authentication (MFA) device. If a tag with the same key name already exists, then that tag is overwritten with the new value.

A tag consists of a key name and an associated value. By assigning tags to your resources, you can do the following:

  • Administrative grouping and discovery - Attach tags to resources to aid in organization and search. For example, you could search for all resources with the key name Project and the value MyImportantProject. Or search for all resources with the key name Cost Center and the value 41200.

  • Access control - Include tags in IAM user-based and resource-based policies. You can use tags to restrict access to only an IAM virtual MFA device that has a specified tag attached. For examples of policies that show how to use tags to control access, see Control access using IAM tags in the IAM User Guide.

  • If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

  • Amazon Web Services always interprets the tag Value as a single string. If you need to store an array, you can store comma-separated values in the string. However, you must interpret the value in your code.

TagOpenIDConnectProvider

$result = $client->tagOpenIDConnectProvider([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->tagOpenIDConnectProviderAsync([/* ... */]);

Adds one or more tags to an OpenID Connect (OIDC)-compatible identity provider. For more information about these providers, see About web identity federation. If a tag with the same key name already exists, then that tag is overwritten with the new value.

A tag consists of a key name and an associated value. By assigning tags to your resources, you can do the following:

  • Administrative grouping and discovery - Attach tags to resources to aid in organization and search. For example, you could search for all resources with the key name Project and the value MyImportantProject. Or search for all resources with the key name Cost Center and the value 41200.

  • Access control - Include tags in IAM identity-based and resource-based policies. You can use tags to restrict access to only an OIDC provider that has a specified tag attached. For examples of policies that show how to use tags to control access, see Control access using IAM tags in the IAM User Guide.

  • If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

  • Amazon Web Services always interprets the tag Value as a single string. If you need to store an array, you can store comma-separated values in the string. However, you must interpret the value in your code.

]);

UpdateAccessKey

$result = $client->updateAccessKey([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateAccessKeyAsync([/* ... */]);

Changes the status of the specified access key from Active to Inactive, or vice versa. This operation can be used to disable a user's key as part of a key rotation workflow.

If the UserName is not specified, the user name is determined implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID used to sign the request. If a temporary access key is used, then UserName is required. If a long-term key is assigned to the user, then UserName is not required. This operation works for access keys under the Amazon Web Services account. Consequently, you can use this operation to manage Amazon Web Services account root user credentials even if the Amazon Web Services account has no associated users.

For information about rotating keys, see Managing keys and certificates in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateAccessKey([
    'AccessKeyId' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'Status' => 'Active|Inactive', // REQUIRED
    'UserName' => '<string>',
]);

Parameter Details

The following command deactivates the specified access key (access key ID and secret access key) for the IAM user named Bob.

$result = $client->updateAccessKey([
    'AccessKeyId' => 'AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE',
    'Status' => 'Inactive',
    'UserName' => 'Bob',
]);

UpdateAccountPasswordPolicy

$result = $client->updateAccountPasswordPolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateAccountPasswordPolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Updates the password policy settings for the Amazon Web Services account.

This operation does not support partial updates. No parameters are required, but if you do not specify a parameter, that parameter's value reverts to its default value. See the Request Parameters section for each parameter's default value. Also note that some parameters do not allow the default parameter to be explicitly set. Instead, to invoke the default value, do not include that parameter when you invoke the operation.

For more information about using a password policy, see Managing an IAM password policy in the IAM User Guide.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateAccountPasswordPolicy([
    'AllowUsersToChangePassword' => true || false,
    'HardExpiry' => true || false,
    'MaxPasswordAge' => <integer>,
    'MinimumPasswordLength' => <integer>,
    'PasswordReusePrevention' => <integer>,
    'RequireLowercaseCharacters' => true || false,
    'RequireNumbers' => true || false,
    'RequireSymbols' => true || false,
    'RequireUppercaseCharacters' => true || false,
]);

Parameter Details

Members
AllowUsersToChangePassword
Type: boolean

Allows all IAM users in your account to use the Amazon Web Services Management Console to change their own passwords. For more information, see Permitting IAM users to change their own passwords in the IAM User Guide.

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that IAM users in the account do not automatically have permissions to change their own password.

HardExpiry
Type: boolean

Prevents IAM users who are accessing the account via the Amazon Web Services Management Console from setting a new console password after their password has expired. The IAM user cannot access the console until an administrator resets the password.

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that IAM users can change their passwords after they expire and continue to sign in as the user.

In the Amazon Web Services Management Console, the custom password policy option Allow users to change their own password gives IAM users permissions to iam:ChangePassword for only their user and to the iam:GetAccountPasswordPolicy action. This option does not attach a permissions policy to each user, rather the permissions are applied at the account-level for all users by IAM. IAM users with iam:ChangePassword permission and active access keys can reset their own expired console password using the CLI or API.

MaxPasswordAge
Type: int

The number of days that an IAM user password is valid.

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of 0. The result is that IAM user passwords never expire.

MinimumPasswordLength
Type: int

The minimum number of characters allowed in an IAM user password.

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of 6.

PasswordReusePrevention
Type: int

Specifies the number of previous passwords that IAM users are prevented from reusing.

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of 0. The result is that IAM users are not prevented from reusing previous passwords.

RequireLowercaseCharacters
Type: boolean

Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one lowercase character from the ISO basic Latin alphabet (a to z).

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one lowercase character.

RequireNumbers
Type: boolean

Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one numeric character (0 to 9).

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one numeric character.

RequireSymbols
Type: boolean

Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one of the following non-alphanumeric characters:

! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + - = [ ] { } | '

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one symbol character.

RequireUppercaseCharacters
Type: boolean

Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one uppercase character from the ISO basic Latin alphabet (A to Z).

If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one uppercase character.

The request was rejected because it attempted to create resources beyond the current Amazon Web Services account limits. The error message describes the limit exceeded.

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

Examples

Example 1: To set or change the current account password policy

The following command sets the password policy to require a minimum length of eight characters and to require one or more numbers in the password:

$result = $client->updateAccountPasswordPolicy([
    'MinimumPasswordLength' => 8,
    'RequireNumbers' => 1,
]);

UpdateAssumeRolePolicy

$result = $client->updateAssumeRolePolicy([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateAssumeRolePolicyAsync([/* ... */]);

Updates the policy that grants an IAM entity permission to assume a role. This is typically referred to as the "role trust policy". For more information about roles, see Using roles to delegate permissions and federate identities.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateAssumeRolePolicy([
    'PolicyDocument' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'RoleName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
PolicyDocument
Required: Yes
Type: string

The policy that grants an entity permission to assume the role.

You must provide policies in JSON format in IAM. However, for CloudFormation templates formatted in YAML, you can provide the policy in JSON or YAML format. CloudFormation 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)

LimitExceededException:

The request was rejected because it attempted to create resources beyond the current Amazon Web Services account limits. The error message describes the limit exceeded.

UnmodifiableEntityException:

The request was rejected because service-linked roles are protected Amazon Web Services resources. Only the service that depends on the service-linked role can modify or delete the role on your behalf. The error message includes the name of the service that depends on this service-linked role. You must request the change through that service.

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

Examples

Example 1: To update the trust policy for an IAM role

The following command updates the role trust policy for the role named Test-Role:

$result = $client->updateAssumeRolePolicy([
    'PolicyDocument' => '{"Version":"2012-10-17","Statement":[{"Effect":"Allow","Principal":{"Service":["ec2.amazonaws.com"]},"Action":["sts:AssumeRole"]}]}',
    'RoleName' => 'S3AccessForEC2Instances',
]);

UpdateGroup

$result = $client->updateGroup([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateGroupAsync([/* ... */]);

Updates the name and/or the path of the specified IAM group.

You should understand the implications of changing a group's path or name. For more information, see Renaming users and groups in the IAM User Guide.

The person making the request (the principal), must have permission to change the role group with the old name and the new name. For example, to change the group named Managers to MGRs, the principal must have a policy that allows them to update both groups. If the principal has permission to update the Managers group, but not the MGRs group, then the update fails. For more information about permissions, see Access management.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateGroup([
    'GroupName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'NewGroupName' => '<string>',
    'NewPath' => '<string>',

NewGroupName
Type: string

New name for the IAM group. Only include this if changing the group's name.

IAM user, group, role, and policy names must be unique within the account. Names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create resources named both "MyResource" and "myresource".

NewPath
Type: string

New path for the IAM group. Only include this if changing the group's path.

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

Errors

EntityTemporarilyUnmodifiableException:

The request was rejected because it referenced an entity that is temporarily unmodifiable, such as a user name that was deleted and then recreated. The error indicates that the request is likely to succeed if you try again after waiting several minutes. The error message describes the entity.

NoSuchEntityException:

The request was rejected because it referenced a resource entity that does not exist. The error message describes the resource.

PasswordPolicyViolationException:

The request was rejected because the provided password did not meet the requirements imposed by the account password policy.

LimitExceededException:

The request was rejected because it attempted to create resources beyond the current Amazon Web Services account limits. The error message describes the limit exceeded.

ServiceFailureException:

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

Examples

Example 1: To change the password for an IAM user

The following command creates or changes the password for the IAM user named Bob.

    'Password' => 'SomeKindOfPassword123!@#',
    'UserName' => 'Bob',
]);

UpdateOpenIDConnectProviderThumbprint

$result = $client->updateOpenIDConnectProviderThumbprint([/* ... */]);
$promise = $client->updateOpenIDConnectProviderThumbprintAsync([/* ... */]);

Replaces the existing list of server certificate thumbprints associated with an OpenID Connect (OIDC) provider resource object with a new list of thumbprints.

The list that you pass with this operation completely replaces the existing list of thumbprints. (The lists are not merged.)

Typically, you need to update a thumbprint only when the identity provider certificate changes, which occurs rarely. However, if the provider's certificate does change, any attempt to assume an IAM role that specifies the OIDC provider as a principal fails until the certificate thumbprint is updated.

Amazon Web Services secures communication with OIDC identity providers (IdPs) using our library of trusted root certificate authorities (CAs) to verify the JSON Web Key Set (JWKS) endpoint's TLS certificate. If your OIDC IdP relies on a certificate that is not signed by one of these trusted CAs, only then we secure communication using the thumbprints set in the IdP's configuration.

Trust for the OIDC provider is derived from the provider certificate and is validated by the thumbprint. Therefore, it is best to limit access to the UpdateOpenIDConnectProviderThumbprint operation to highly privileged users.

Parameter Syntax

$result = $client->updateOpenIDConnectProviderThumbprint([
    'OpenIDConnectProviderArn' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
    'ThumbprintList' => ['<string>', ...], // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

OpenIDConnectProviderArn
Required: Yes
Type: string

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the IAM OIDC provider resource object for which you want to update the thumbprint. You can get a list of OIDC provider ARNs by using the ListOpenIDConnectProviders operation.

For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

ThumbprintList

    'MaxSessionDuration' => <integer>,
    'RoleName' => '<string>', // REQUIRED
]);

Parameter Details

Members
Description
Type: string

The new description that you want to apply to the specified role.

MaxSessionDuration
Type: int

The maximum session duration (in seconds) that you want to set for the specified role. If you do not specify a value for this setting, the default value of one hour is applied. This setting can have a value from 1 hour to 12 hours.

Anyone who assumes the role from the CLI or API can use the DurationSeconds API parameter or the duration-seconds CLI parameter to request a longer session. The MaxSessionDuration setting determines the maximum duration that can be requested using the DurationSeconds parameter. If users don't specify a value for the DurationSeconds parameter, their security credentials are valid for one hour by default. This applies when you use the AssumeRole* API operations or the assume-role* CLI operations but does not apply when you use those operations to create a console URL. For more information, see Using IAM roles in the IAM User Guide.

IAM role credentials provided by Amazon EC2 instances assigned to the role are not subject to the specified maximum session duration.

$promise = $client->uploadServerCertificateAsync([/* ... */]);

Uploads a server certificate entity for the Amazon Web Services account. The server certificate entity includes a public key certificate, a private key, and an optional certificate chain, which should all be PEM-encoded.

We recommend that you use Certificate Manager to provision, manage, and deploy your server certificates. With ACM you can request a certificate, deploy it to Amazon Web Services resources, and let ACM handle certificate renewals for you. Certificates provided by ACM are free. For more information about using ACM, see the Certificate Manager User Guide.

For more information about working with server certificates, see Working with server certificates in the IAM User Guide. This topic includes a list of Amazon Web Services services that can use the server certificates that you manage with IAM.

For information about the number of server certificates you can upload, see IAM and STS quotas in the IAM User Guide.

Because the body of the public key certificate, private key, and the certificate chain can be large, you should use POST rather than GET when calling UploadServerCertificate. For information about setting up signatures and authorization through the API, see Signing Amazon Web Services API requests in the Amazon Web Services General Reference. For general information about using the Query API with IAM, see Calling the API by making HTTP query requests in the IAM User Guide.
