AWS SDK Version 2 for .NET
API Reference

AWS services or capabilities described in AWS Documentation may vary by region/location. Click Getting Started with Amazon AWS to see specific differences applicable to the China (Beijing) Region.

.NET Framework 3.5
 
 
Adds a permission to a queue for a specific principal. This allows for sharing access to the queue.

When you create a queue, you have full control access rights for the queue. Only you (as owner of the queue) can grant or deny permissions to the queue. For more information about these permissions, see Shared Queues in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide.

AddPermission writes an Amazon SQS-generated policy. If you want to write your own policy, use SetQueueAttributes to upload your policy. For more information about writing your own policy, see Using The Access Policy Language in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide.

Some API actions take lists of parameters. These lists are specified using the param.n notation. Values of n are integers starting from 1. For example, a parameter list with two elements looks like this:

&Attribute.1=this

&Attribute.2=that

Namespace: Amazon.SQS
Assembly: AWSSDK.dll

Syntax

C# 
public virtual AddPermissionResponse AddPermission(
         String queueUrl,
         String label,
         List<String> awsAccountIds,
         List<String> actions
)

Parameters

queueUrl
Type: System.String

The URL of the Amazon SQS queue to take action on.

label
Type: System.String

The unique identification of the permission you're setting (e.g., AliceSendMessage). Constraints: Maximum 80 characters; alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), and underscores (_) are allowed.

awsAccountIds
Type: List<System.String>

The AWS account number of the principal who will be given permission. The principal must have an AWS account, but does not need to be signed up for Amazon SQS. For information about locating the AWS account identification, see Your AWS Identifiers in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide.

actions
Type: List<System.String>

The action the client wants to allow for the specified principal. The following are valid values: * | SendMessage | ReceiveMessage | DeleteMessage | ChangeMessageVisibility | GetQueueAttributes | GetQueueUrl. For more information about these actions, see Understanding Permissions in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide. Specifying SendMessage, DeleteMessage, or ChangeMessageVisibility for the ActionName.n also grants permissions for the corresponding batch versions of those actions: SendMessageBatch, DeleteMessageBatch, and ChangeMessageVisibilityBatch.

Return Value
Type: Amazon.SQS.Model.AddPermissionResponse
The response from the AddPermission service method, as returned by SQS.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
OverLimitException The action that you requested would violate a limit. For example, ReceiveMessage returns this error if the maximum number of messages inflight has already been reached. AddPermission returns this error if the maximum number of permissions for the queue has already been reached.
