Get started with IAM
Use these topics to get started with Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM). Learn how to create roles, users, and policies using the Amazon Web Services Management Console.
Amazon Identity and Access Management is a feature of your Amazon Web Services account offered at no additional charge. You will be
charged only for use of other Amazon products by your IAM users. For information about the pricing
of other Amazon products, see the Amazon Web Services pricing
page
Note
This set of documentation deals primarily with the IAM service. To learn about getting
