Use ListPolicyVersions with an AWS SDK or CLI

The following code examples show how to use ListPolicyVersions.

Action examples are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. You can see this action in context in the following code examples:

• Manage policies

• Roll back a policy version

CLI

AWS CLI

To list information about the versions of the specified managed policy

This example returns the list of available versions of the policy whose ARN is arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MySamplePolicy.

aws iam list-policy-versions \
    --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MySamplePolicy

Output:

{
    "IsTruncated": false,
    "Versions": [
        {
        "VersionId": "v2",
        "IsDefaultVersion": true,
        "CreateDate": "2015-06-02T23:19:44Z"
        },
        {
        "VersionId": "v1",
        "IsDefaultVersion": false,
        "CreateDate": "2015-06-02T22:30:47Z"
        }
    ]
}

PowerShell

Tools for PowerShell V4

Example 1: This example returns the list of available versions of the policy whose ARN is arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyManagedPolicy. To get the policy document for a specific version, use the Get-IAMPolicyVersion command and specify the VersionId of the one you want.

Get-IAMPolicyVersionList -PolicyArn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyManagedPolicy

Output:

CreateDate                   Document                 IsDefaultVersion                  VersionId
----------                   --------                 ----------------                  ---------

Tools for PowerShell V5

Example 1: This example returns the list of available versions of the policy whose ARN is arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyManagedPolicy. To get the policy document for a specific version, use the Get-IAMPolicyVersion command and specify the VersionId of the one you want.

Get-IAMPolicyVersionList -PolicyArn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyManagedPolicy

Output:
