For example: `arn:aws:ram:us-east-1:999999999999:resource-share/27d09b4b-5e12-41d1-a4f2-19ded10982e2|arn:aws:license-manager:us-east-1:999999999999:license-configuration:lic-36be0485f5ae379cc74cf8e9242ab143`.

For more information about using the `Ref` function, see [`Ref`](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html).
