# CloudFormation resources generated when you specify AWS::Serverless::Connector
<a name="sam-specification-generated-resources-connector"></a>

**Note**  
When you define connectors through the embedded `Connectors` property, it is first transformed into an `AWS::Serverless::Connector` resource before generating these resources.

When you specify an `AWS::Serverless::Connector` resource in an AWS SAM template, AWS SAM generates the following AWS CloudFormation resources as needed.

**`AWS::IAM::ManagedPolicy`**  
 *`LogicalId`:*`<connector‑LogicalId>Policy`   
 *Referenceable property:* N/A (To reference this CloudFormation resource, you must use the `LogicalId`.) 

**`AWS::SNS::TopicPolicy`**  
 *`LogicalId`:*`<connector‑LogicalId>TopicPolicy`   
 *Referenceable property:* N/A (To reference this CloudFormation resource, you must use the `LogicalId`.) 

**`AWS::SQS::QueuePolicy`**  
 *`LogicalId`:*`<connector‑LogicalId>QueuePolicy`   
 *Referenceable property:* N/A (To reference this CloudFormation resource, you must use the `LogicalId`.) 

**`AWS::Lambda::Permission`**  
 *`LogicalId`:*`<connector‑LogicalId><permission>LambdaPermission`   
 `<permission>` is a permission specified by the `Permissions` property. For example, `Write`.   
*Referenceable property:* N/A (To reference this CloudFormation resource, you must use the `LogicalId`.)
