AWSConfigRemediation-ReplaceIAMInlinePolicy - AWS Systems Manager Automation Runbook Reference

AWSConfigRemediation-ReplaceIAMInlinePolicy

Description

The AWSConfigRemediation-ReplaceIAMInlinePolicy runbook replaces an inline AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy with a replicated managed IAM policy. For an inline policy attached to a user, group, or role, the inline policy permissions are cloned into a managed IAM policy. The managed IAM policy is added to the resource, and the inline policy is removed. AWS Config must be enabled in the AWS Region where you run this automation.
