Amazon IAM Examples

Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM) is a web service that enables Amazon Web Services customers to manage users and user permissions in Amazon. The service is targeted at organizations with multiple users or systems in the cloud that use Amazon products. With IAM, you can centrally manage users, security credentials such as access keys, and permissions that control which Amazon resources users can access.

Relationship between JavaScript environments, the SDK, and IAM

The JavaScript API for IAM is exposed through the AWS.IAM client class. For more information about using the IAM client class, see Class: AWS.IAM in the API reference.
