Attaching a Policy to an Entity

This API is used to attach a policy to a root, OU, or individual account. It can be called only from the organization's management account.

You can debug this API through automatic authentication in API Explorer or use the SDK sample code generated by API Explorer.

Each account has all the permissions required to call all APIs, but IAM users must be assigned the required permissions.

If you are using role/policy-based authorization, see Permissions Policies and Supported Actions for details on the required permissions.

If you are using identity policy-based authorization, the following identity policy-based permissions are required.

		account	g:ResourceTag/<tag-key>
