GetPolicy

Retrieves the resource-based policy attached to a private CA. If either the private CA resource or the policy cannot be found, this action returns a ResourceNotFoundException.

The policy can be attached or updated with PutPolicy and removed with DeletePolicy.

About Policies

A policy grants access on a private CA to an AWS customer account, to AWS Organizations, or to an AWS Organizations unit. Policies are under the control of a CA administrator. For more information, see Using a Resource Based Policy with AWS Private CA.
A policy permits a user of AWS Certificate Manager (ACM) to issue ACM certificates signed by a CA in another account.
For ACM to manage automatic renewal of these certificates, the ACM user must configure a Service Linked Role (SLR). The SLR allows the ACM service to assume the identity of the user, subject to confirmation against the AWS Private CA policy. For more information, see Using a Service Linked Role with ACM.
Updates made in AWS Resource Manager (RAM) are reflected in policies. For more information, see Attach a Policy for Cross-Account Access.
