Control-plane actions (76)

By access level: 21 List, 22 Read, 33 Write.

Data-plane actions (0)

By access level: none.

This policy grants no actions in this plane.

Excluded and conditional actions

No patterns are excluded by NotAction or Deny statements.

Resource scope and attachment

Resource scope across granted actions: mixed.

Can be attached: Yes, to users, groups and roles.

Why this tier

• Grants 33 write, tagging or permissions-management actions, short of full control of any service.
• Grants iam:PassRole, but only for scoped roles or under conditions (for example iam:PassedToService).
