CreatePermission
Creates a customer managed permission for a specified resource type that you can attach to resource shares. It is created in the Amazon Web Services Region in which you call the operation.
Request Syntax

Content-type: application/json
{
"clientToken": "string
",
"name": "string

"policyTemplate": "string

"resourceType": "string

URI Request Parameters
The request does not use any URI parameters.
Request Body
The request accepts the following data in JSON format.
- name
-
Specifies the name of the customer managed permission. The name must be unique within the Amazon Web Services Region.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 36.
Pattern:
[\w.-]*
Required: Yes
- policyTemplate
-
A string in JSON format string that contains the following elements of a resource-based policy:
-
Effect: must be set to
ALLOW
. -
Action: specifies the actions that are allowed by this customer managed permission. The list must contain only actions that are supported by the specified resource type. For a list of all actions supported by each resource type, see Actions, resources, and condition keys for Amazon services in the Amazon Identity and Access Management User Guide.
-
Condition: (optional) specifies conditional parameters that must evaluate to true when a user attempts an action for that action to be allowed. For more information about the Condition element, see IAM policies: Condition element in the Amazon Identity and Access Management User Guide.
This template can't include either the
Resource
orPrincipal
elements. Those are both filled in by Amazon RAM when it instantiates the resource-based policy on each resource shared using this managed permission. TheResource
comes from the ARN of the specific resource that you are sharing. ThePrincipal
comes from the list of identities added to the resource share.Type: String
Required: Yes
-
- resourceType
-
Specifies the name of the resource type that this customer managed permission applies to.
The format is
<service-code>:<resource-type>
and is not case sensitive. For example, to specify an Amazon EC2 Subnet, you can use the stringec2:subnet
. To see the list of valid values for this parameter, query the ListResourceTypes operation.Type: String
Required: Yes
- clientToken
-
Specifies a unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. This lets you safely retry the request without accidentally performing the same operation a second time. Passing the same value to a later call to an operation requires that you also pass the same value for all other parameters. We recommend that you use a UUID type of value.
. If you don't provide this value, then Amazon generates a random one for you.
If you retry the operation with the same
ClientToken
, but with different parameters, the retry fails with anIdempotentParameterMismatch
error.Type: String
Required: No
-
Specifies a list of one or more tag key and value pairs to attach to the permission.
Type: Array of Tag objects
Required: No

Response Elements
If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.
The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.
- clientToken

The idempotency identifier associated with this request. If you want to repeat the same operation in an idempotent manner then you must include this value in the
clientToken
request parameter of that later call. All other parameters must also have the same values that you used in the first call.Type: String
- permission
-
A structure with information about this customer managed permission.
Type: ResourceSharePermissionSummary object
