Actions Defined by AWS X-Ray
You can specify the following actions in the Action
element of an IAM policy statement. By using policies, you define the permissions
for anyone performing an operation in AWS. When you use an action in a policy,
you usually allow or deny access to the API operation or CLI command with the
same name. However, in some cases, a single action controls access to more than
one operation. Alternatively, some operations require several different actions.
For details about the columns in the following table, see The Actions Table.
Actions | Description | Access Level | Resource Types (*required) | Condition Keys | Dependent Actions |

BatchGetTraces | Retrieves a list of traces specified by ID. Each trace is a collection of segment documents that originates from a single request. Use GetTraceSummaries to get a list of trace IDs. | Read | |||
CreateGroup | Creates a group resource with a name and a filter expression. | Write | |||
CreateSamplingRule | Creates a rule to control sampling behavior for instrumented applications. | Write | |||
DeleteGroup | Deletes a group resource. | Write | |||
DeleteSamplingRule | Deletes a sampling rule. | Write | |||
GetEncryptionConfig | Retrieves the current encryption configuration for X-Ray data. | Permissions management | |||
GetGroup | Retrieves group resource details. | Read | |||
GetGroups | Retrieves all active group details. | Read | |||
GetSamplingRules | Retrieves all sampling rules. | Read | |||
GetSamplingStatisticSummaries | Retrieves information about recent sampling results for all sampling rules. | Read | |||
GetSamplingTargets | Requests a sampling quota for rules that the service is using to sample requests. | Read | |||
GetServiceGraph | Retrieves a document that describes services that process incoming requests, and downstream services that they call as a result. | Read | |||
GetTraceGraph | Retrieves a service graph for one or more specific trace IDs. | Read | |||
