# GetPolicySummary
<a name="API_GetPolicySummary"></a>

Retrieves a metadata-only summary of a specific policy without decrypting customer content. This lightweight read operation returns resource identifiers, status, and timestamps, but does not include the policy definition, description, or status reasons. Because this operation does not require access to the customer's AWS KMS key, it is suitable for resource discovery, inventory, and integration scenarios where only metadata is needed.
