AWS IAM Examples

AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a web service that enables Amazon Web Services customers to manage users and user permissions in AWS. The service is targeted at organizations with multiple users or systems in the cloud that use AWS products. With IAM, you can centrally manage users, security credentials such as access keys, and permissions that control which AWS resources users can access.

Relationship between JavaScript environments, the SDK, and IAM

The JavaScript API for IAM is exposed through the AWS.IAM client class. For more information about using the IAM client class, see Class: AWS.IAM in the API reference.
