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).

PutResourcePolicy

Creates or updates a Systems Manager resource policy. A resource policy helps you to define the IAM entity (for example, an Amazon Web Services account) that can manage your Systems Manager resources. The following resources support Systems Manager resource policies.

  • OpsItemGroup - The resource policy for OpsItemGroup enables Amazon Web Services accounts to view and interact with OpsCenter operational work items (OpsItems).

  • Parameter - The resource policy is used to share a parameter with other accounts using Amazon Resource Access Manager (Amazon RAM).

    To share a parameter, it must be in the advanced parameter tier. For information about parameter tiers, see Managing parameter tiers. For information about changing an existing standard parameter to an advanced parameter, see Changing a standard parameter to an advanced parameter.

    To share a SecureString parameter, it must be encrypted with a customer managed key, and you must share the key separately through Amazon Key Management Service. Amazon managed keys cannot be shared. Parameters encrypted with the default Amazon managed key can be updated to use a customer managed key instead. For Amazon KMS key definitions, see Amazon KMS concepts in the Amazon Key Management Service Developer Guide.

    Important

    While you can share a parameter using the Systems Manager PutResourcePolicy operation, we recommend using Amazon Resource Access Manager (Amazon RAM) instead. This is because using PutResourcePolicy requires the extra step of promoting the parameter to a standard Amazon RAM Resource Share using the Amazon RAM PromoteResourceShareCreatedFromPolicy API operation. Otherwise, the parameter won't be returned by the Systems Manager DescribeParameters API operation using the --shared option.

    For more information, see Sharing a parameter in the Amazon Systems Manager User Guide
