Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property GroupName System.String

Gets and sets the property GroupName.

The name of the group to create. Do not include the path in this value.

IAM user, group, role, and policy names must be unique within the account. Names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create resources named both "MyResource" and "myresource".

The path to the group. For more information about paths, see IAM identifiers in the IAM User Guide.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/).

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.

Examples

The following command creates an IAM group named Admins.

To create an IAM group


var client = new AmazonIdentityManagementServiceClient();
var response = client.CreateGroup(new CreateGroupRequest 
{
    GroupName = "Admins"
});

Group group = response.Group;
