Custom Policy

Custom policies can be created to supplement the system-defined policies of CCM. For the actions that can be added to custom policies, see Permissions Policies and Supported Actions.

You can create custom policies in either of the following ways:

  • Visual editor: Select cloud services, actions, resources, and request conditions. This does not require knowledge of policy syntax.
  • JSON: Edit JSON policies from scratch or based on an existing policy.

For more details, see Creating a Custom Policy. The following section contains examples of common CCM custom policies.

Example Custom Policies

  • Example 1: Allowing users to download certificates 
    {
        "Version": "1.1",
        "Statement": [
                {
                        "Action": [
                                "ccm:cert:download"
                        ],
                        "Effect": "Allow"
                }
        ]
}
  • Example 2: denying certificate deletion

    A deny policy must be used together with other policies. If the permissions assigned to a user contain both "Allow" and "Deny", the "Deny" permissions take precedence over the "Allow" permissions.

    The following method can be used if you need to assign permissions of the CCM Administrator policy to a user but you want to prevent the user from deleting certificates. Create a custom policy for denying certificate deletion, and attach both policies to the group to which the user belongs. Then, the user can perform all operations on certificates except deleting certificates. The following is an example of a deny policy:

    {
        "Version": "1.1",
        "Statement": [
                {
                        "Action": [
                                "ccm:cert:delete"
                        ],
                        "Effect": "Deny"
                }
        ]
}
  • Example 3: Defining permissions for multiple services in a policy

    A custom policy can contain the actions of multiple services that are of the global or project-level type. The following is an example policy containing actions of multiple services:

    {
        "Version": "1.1",
        "Statement": [
                {
                        "Action": [
                                "ccm:cert:complete",
                                "ccm:cert:push",
                                "cdn:configuration:queryHttpsConf"
                        ],
                        "Effect": "Allow"
                }
        ]
}
