Use a
Resource
element with the domain name to limit the action to only specified domains.Use an
Action
element to allow or deny permission to call this action.You cannot use an IAM policy to constrain this action's parameters.
If the caller doesn't have sufficient permissions to invoke the action, or the parameter values fall outside the specified constraints, the action fails. The associated event attribute's
