Class: Aws::IAM::Resource

Inherits:
Resources::Resource show all
Defined in:
aws-sdk-resources/lib/aws-sdk-resources/services/iam.rb

Overview

This class provides a resource oriented interface for IAM. To create a resource object:

resource = Aws::IAM::Resource.new

You can supply a client object with custom configuration that will be used for all resource operations. If you do not pass :client, a default client will be constructed.

client = Aws::IAM::Client.new(region: 'us-west-2')
resource = Aws::IAM::Resource.new(client: client)

Instance Method Details

#account_password_policyAccountPasswordPolicy

#account_summaryAccountSummary

Returns:

#change_password(options = {}) ⇒ Struct

Changes the password of the IAM user who is calling this operation. The AWS account root user password is not affected by this operation.

To change the password for a different user, see UpdateLoginProfile. For more information about modifying passwords, see Managing Passwords in the IAM User Guide.

Examples:

Request syntax example with placeholder values


iam.change_password({
  old_password: "passwordType", # required
  new_password: "passwordType", # required
})

Options Hash (options):

  • :old_password (required, String)

    The IAM user\'s current password.

  • :new_password (required, String)

    The new password. The new password must conform to the AWS account\'s password policy, if one exists.

    The regex pattern that is used to validate this parameter is a string of characters. That string can include almost any printable ASCII character from the space (\u0020) through the end of the ASCII character range (\u00FF). You can also include the tab (\u0009), line feed (\u000A), and carriage return (\u000D) characters. Any of these characters are valid in a password. However, many tools, such as the AWS Management Console, might restrict the ability to type certain characters because they have special meaning within that tool.

Returns:

  • (Struct)

    Returns an empty response.

See Also:

#create_account_alias(options = {}) ⇒ Struct

Creates an alias for your AWS account. For information about using an AWS account alias, see Using an Alias for Your AWS Account ID in the IAM User Guide.

Examples:

Request syntax example with placeholder values


iam.({
  account_alias: "accountAliasType", # required
})

Options Hash (options):

  • :account_alias (required, String)

    The account alias to create.

    This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of lowercase letters, digits, and dashes. You cannot start or finish with a dash, nor can you have two dashes in a row.

Returns:

  • (Struct)

    Returns an empty response.

})

Basic usage

accountpasswordpolicy = iam.create_account_password_policy(options)
accountpasswordpolicy.
#=> "accountpasswordpolicy-"

Options Hash (options):

  • :minimum_password_length (Integer)

    The minimum number of characters allowed in an IAM user password.

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of 6.

  • :require_symbols (Boolean)

    Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one of the following non-alphanumeric characters:

    ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + - = [ ] { } | \'

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one symbol character.

  • :require_numbers (Boolean)

    Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one numeric character (0 to 9).

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one numeric character.

  • :require_uppercase_characters (Boolean)

    Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one uppercase character from the ISO basic Latin alphabet (A to Z).

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one uppercase character.

  • :require_lowercase_characters (Boolean)

    Specifies whether IAM user passwords must contain at least one lowercase character from the ISO basic Latin alphabet (a to z).

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that passwords do not require at least one lowercase character.

  • :allow_users_to_change_password (Boolean)

    Allows all IAM users in your account to use the AWS Management Console to change their own passwords. For more information, see Letting IAM Users Change Their Own Passwords in the IAM User Guide.

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that IAM users in the account do not automatically have permissions to change their own password.

  • :max_password_age (Integer)

    The number of days that an IAM user password is valid.

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of 0. The result is that IAM user passwords never expire.

  • :password_reuse_prevention (Integer)

    Specifies the number of previous passwords that IAM users are prevented from reusing.

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of 0. The result is that IAM users are not prevented from reusing previous passwords.

  • :hard_expiry (Boolean)

    Prevents IAM users from setting a new password after their password has expired. The IAM user cannot be accessed until an administrator resets the password.

    If you do not specify a value for this parameter, then the operation uses the default value of false. The result is that IAM users can change their passwords after they expire and continue to sign in as the user.

  • :description (String)

    A description of the role.

  • :max_session_duration (Integer)

    The maximum session duration (in seconds) that you want to set for the specified role. If you do not specify a value for this setting, the default maximum of one hour is applied. This setting can have a value from 1 hour to 12 hours.

    Anyone who assumes the role from the AWS CLI or API can use the DurationSeconds API parameter or the duration-seconds CLI parameter to request a longer session. The MaxSessionDuration setting determines the maximum duration that can be requested using the DurationSeconds parameter. If users don\'t specify a value for the DurationSeconds parameter, their security credentials are valid for one hour by default. This applies when you use the AssumeRole* API operations or the assume-role* CLI operations but does not apply when you use those operations to create a console URL. For more information, see Using IAM Roles in the IAM User Guide.

  • :permissions_boundary (String)

    The ARN of the policy that is used to set the permissions boundary for the role.

  • :tags (Array<Types::Tag>)

    A list of tags that you want to attach to the newly created role. Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM Identities in the IAM User Guide.

    If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed number of tags per role, then the entire request fails and the role is not created.

  # yields at most 10 policies
end

Options Hash (options):

  • :scope (String)

    The scope to use for filtering the results.

    To list only AWS managed policies, set Scope to AWS. To list only the customer managed policies in your AWS account, set Scope to Local.

    This parameter is optional. If it is not included, or if it is set to All, all policies are returned.

  • :only_attached (Boolean)

    A flag to filter the results to only the attached policies.

    When OnlyAttached is true, the returned list contains only the policies that are attached to an IAM user, group, or role. When OnlyAttached is false, or when the parameter is not included, all policies are returned.

  • :path_prefix (String)

    The path prefix for filtering the results. This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/), listing all policies. This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

  • :policy_usage_filter (String)

    The policy usage method to use for filtering the results.

    To list only permissions policies, set PolicyUsageFilter to PermissionsPolicy. To list only the policies used to set permissions boundaries, set the value to PermissionsBoundary.

    This parameter is optional. If it is not included, all policies are returned.

  • :marker (String)

    Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

  • :max_items (Integer)

    Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

    If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.
