MgC Custom Policies

Custom policies can be created to supplement the system-defined policies of MgC.

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: Create a JSON policy from scratch or based on an existing policy.

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