PermissionsBoundary - IAM Identity Center
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

PermissionsBoundary

Specifies the configuration of the Amazon managed or customer managed policy that you want to set as a permissions boundary. Specify either CustomerManagedPolicyReference to use the name and path of a customer managed policy, or ManagedPolicyArn to use the ARN of an Amazon managed policy. A permissions boundary represents the maximum permissions that any policy can grant your role. For more information, see Permissions boundaries for IAM entities in the IAM User Guide.

Important

Policies used as permissions boundaries don't provide permissions. You must also attach an IAM policy to the role. To learn how the effective permissions for a role are evaluated, see IAM JSON policy evaluation logic in the IAM User Guide.
