Manage IAM Policies

In ARTESCA, access is managed by creating policies and attaching them to IAM identities (users, groups of users, or roles) or ARTESCA resources.

A policy is an object in ARTESCA that defines the permissions of the identities or resources it is attached to. IAM Policies can be attached to IAM Users, IAM Roles and IAM Groups.

An IAM policy can have different versions. Only the default (active) version of a policy will apply.
