AWS Services that Support IAM

This section links to topics that describe how IAM integrates with the different AWS products, and how to write policies to control access to a particular AWS product and its resources.

The following table summarizes whether you can grant IAM permissions that control access to a service's actions, resources, or both. For example, you can use IAM to control which Amazon EC2 actions users have access to, but you can't use IAM to control users' access to AMIs, volumes, instances, etc.
