Properties

CustomerManagedPolicyReferences

Specifies the names and paths of the customer managed policies that you have attached to your permission set.

Required: No

Type: Array of CustomerManagedPolicyReference

Maximum: 20

Update requires: No interruption

Description

The description of the AWS::SSO::PermissionSet.

Required: No

Type: String

Pattern: [\u0009\u000A\u000D\u0020-\u007E\u00A1-\u00FF]*

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 700

Update requires: No interruption

InlinePolicy

The inline policy that is attached to the permission set.

Note

For Length Constraints, if a valid ARN is provided for a permission set, it is possible for an empty inline policy to be returned.

Required: No

Type: Json

Pattern: [\u0009\u000A\u000D\u0020-\u00FF]+

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 32768

Update requires: No interruption

InstanceArn

The ARN of the IAM Identity Center instance under which the operation will be executed. For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) and AWS Service Namespaces in the AWS General Reference.

Required: Yes

Type: String

Pattern: arn:(aws|aws-us-gov|aws-cn|aws-iso|aws-iso-b):sso:::instance/(sso)?ins-[a-zA-Z0-9-.]{16}

Minimum: 10

Maximum: 1224

Update requires: Replacement

ManagedPolicies

A structure that stores the details of the AWS managed policy.

Required: No

Maximum: 20

Update requires: No interruption

Name

The name of the permission set.

Required: Yes

Type: String

Pattern: [\w+=,.@-]+

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 32

Update requires: Replacement

PermissionsBoundary

Specifies the configuration of the AWS managed or customer managed policy that you want to set as a permissions boundary. Specify either CustomerManagedPolicyReference to use the name and path of a customer managed policy, or ManagedPolicyArn to use the ARN of an AWS managed policy. A permissions boundary represents the maximum permissions that any policy can grant your role. For more information, see Permissions boundaries for IAM entities in the IAM User Guide.

Important

Policies used as permissions boundaries don't provide permissions. You must also attach an IAM policy to the role. To learn how the effective permissions for a role are evaluated, see IAM JSON policy evaluation logic in the IAM User Guide.

Required: No

Type: PermissionsBoundary

Update requires: No interruption

RelayStateType

Used to redirect users within the application during the federation authentication process.

Required: No

Type: String

Pattern: [a-zA-Z0-9&$@#\/%?=~\-_'"|!:,.;*+\[\]\ \{\}]+

Minimum: 1

Maximum: 100

Update requires: No interruption

Tags

The tags to attach to the new AWS::SSO::PermissionSet.

Required: No

Type: Array of Tag

Maximum: 50

Update requires: No interruption

Return values

Ref

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic Ref function, Ref returns a generated ID, such as permission-arn|sso-instance-arn.

For more information about using the Ref function, see Ref.

Fn::GetAtt

The Fn::GetAtt intrinsic function returns a value for a specified attribute of this type. The following are the available attributes and sample return values.

For more information about using the Fn::GetAtt intrinsic function, see Fn::GetAtt.

PermissionSetArn: The permission set ARN of the permission set, such as arn:aws:sso:::permissionSet/ins-instanceid/ps-permissionsetid.
