Customer Operation Capabilities

IAM provides system-defined identity policies to define common actions supported by cloud services. You can also create custom identity policies using the actions supported by cloud services for more refined access control.

In addition to IAM, the Organizations service also provides Service Control Policies (SCPs) to set access control policies.

SCPs do not actually grant any permissions to a principal. They only set the permissions boundary for the principal. When SCPs are attached to an organizational unit (OU) or a member account, the SCPs do not directly grant permissions to that OU or member account. Instead, the SCPs only determine what permissions are available for that member account or those member accounts under that OU. The granted IAM permissions can be applied only if they are allowed by the SCPs.

To learn more about how IAM policies are different from Organizations SCPs, see What Are the Differences Between IAM Policies and Organizations SCPs?

This section describes the authorization elements used by IAM custom identity policies and Organizations SCPs. The elements include actions, resources, and conditions.

Actions

Actions are specific operations that are allowed or denied in an identity policy.

  • The Access Level column describes how the action is classified (list, read, or write). This classification helps you understand the level of access that an action grants when you use it in an identity policy.
  • The Resource Type column indicates whether the action supports resource-level permissions.
    • You can use a wildcard (*) to indicate all resource types. If this column is empty (-), the action does not support resource-level permissions and you must specify all resources ("*") in your policy statements.
    • If this column includes a resource type, you must specify the URN in the Resource element of your policy statements.
    • Required resources are marked with asterisks (*) in the table. If you specify a resource in a statement using this action, then it must be of this type.

    For details about the resource types defined by BSS, see Resources.

  • The Condition Key column contains keys that you can specify in the Condition element of an identity policy statement.
    • If the Resource Type column has values for an action, the condition key takes effect only for the listed resource types.
    • If the Resource Type column is empty (-) for an action, the condition key takes effect for all resources that action supports.
    • If the Condition Key column is empty (-) for an action, the action does not support any condition keys.

    For details about condition keys defined by BSS, see Conditions.

  • The Alias column lists the policy actions that are configured in identity policies. With these actions, you can use APIs for policy-based authorization. For details, see Policies and Identity Policies.

The following table lists the actions that you can define in identity policy statements.

The billing:contract:viewDiscount permission code only affects the discount information returned in the response, but it does not affect the API call. When there is no permission, the API can still be accessed normally, but it will not return the discount information.

Resources

BSS does not support resource-specific permission control in identity policies. If you want to allow access to BSS, use the wildcard (*) for the Resource element to apply policies to all resources.

Conditions

A Condition element lets you specify conditions for when an identity policy is in effect. It contains condition keys and operators.

  • The condition key that you specify can be a global condition key or a service-specific condition key.
    • Global condition keys (with the g: prefix) apply to all actions. Cloud services do not need to provide user identity information. Instead, the system automatically obtains such information and authenticates users. For details, see Global Condition Keys.
    • Service-specific condition keys (with the abbreviation of a service name plus a colon as the prefix, for example, BSS:) only apply to operations of the BSS service. For details, see Table 2.
    • The number of values associated with a condition key in the request context of an API call makes the condition key single-valued or multivalued. Single-valued condition keys have at most one value in the request context of an API call. Multivalued condition keys can have multiple values in the request context of an API call. For example, a request can originate from at most one VPC endpoint, so g:SourceVpce is a single-valued condition key. You can tag resources and include multiple tag key-value pairs in a request, so g:TagKeys is a multivalued condition key.
  • A condition operator, condition key, and a condition value together constitute a complete condition statement. An identity policy can be applied only when its request conditions are met. For supported condition operators, see .

The following table lists the condition keys that you can define in identity policies for BSS. You can include these condition keys to specify conditions for when your identity policy is in effect.
