Amazon EC2: Allows managing EC2 security groups with a specific tag key-value pair programmatically and in the console
This example shows how you might create an identity-based policy that grants users permission to take certain actions for security groups
that have the same tag. This policy grants permissions to view security groups in the
Amazon EC2 console, add and remove inbound and outbound rules, and list and modify rule descriptions
for existing security groups with the tag Department=Test
. This policy defines permissions for programmatic and console access. To use this policy, replace the italicized placeholder text
in the example policy with your own information.
Then, follow the directions in create a policy or edit a policy.
