    tags=[CfnTag(
        key="key",
        value="value"
    )]
)

Create a new AWS::IAM::Role.

Parameters:
  • scope (Construct) –

    • scope in which this resource is defined.

  • id (str) –

    • scoped id of the resource.

  • assume_role_policy_document (Any) – The trust policy that is associated with this role. Trust policies define which entities can assume the role. You can associate only one trust policy with a role. For an example of a policy that can be used to assume a role, see Template Examples . For more information about the elements that you can use in an IAM policy, see IAM Policy Elements Reference in the IAM User Guide .

  • description (Optional[str]) – A description of the role that you provide.

  • managed_policy_arns (Optional[Sequence[str]]) – A list of Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the IAM managed policies that you want to attach to the role. For more information about ARNs, see Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) and AWS Service Namespaces in the AWS General Reference .

  • max_session_duration (Union[int, float, None]) – The maximum session duration (in seconds) that you want to set for the specified role. If you do not specify a value for this setting, the default value of one hour is applied. This setting can have a value from 1 hour to 12 hours. Anyone who assumes the role from the AWS CLI or API can use the DurationSeconds API parameter or the duration-seconds AWS CLI parameter to request a longer session. The MaxSessionDuration setting determines the maximum duration that can be requested using the DurationSeconds parameter. If users don’t specify a value for the DurationSeconds parameter, their security credentials are valid for one hour by default. This applies when you use the AssumeRole* API operations or the assume-role* AWS CLI operations but does not apply when you use those operations to create a console URL. For more information, see Using IAM roles in the IAM User Guide .

  • path (Optional[str]) – The path to the role. For more information about paths, see IAM Identifiers in the IAM User Guide . This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/). This parameter allows (through its regex pattern ) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! ( \ u0021 ) through the DEL character ( \ u007F ), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

  • permissions_boundary (Optional[str]) – The ARN of the policy used to set the permissions boundary for the role. For more information about permissions boundaries, see Permissions boundaries for IAM identities in the IAM User Guide .

  • policies (Union[IResolvable, Sequence[Union[IResolvable, PolicyProperty, Dict[str, Any]]], None]) – Adds or updates an inline policy document that is embedded in the specified IAM role. When you embed an inline policy in a role, the inline policy is used as part of the role’s access (permissions) policy. The role’s trust policy is created at the same time as the role. You can update a role’s trust policy later. For more information about IAM roles, go to Using Roles to Delegate Permissions and Federate Identities . A role can also have an attached managed policy. For information about policies, see Managed Policies and Inline Policies in the IAM User Guide . For information about limits on the number of inline policies that you can embed with a role, see Limitations on IAM Entities in the IAM User Guide . .. epigraph:: If an external policy (such as AWS::IAM::Policy or AWS::IAM::ManagedPolicy ) has a Ref to a role and if a resource (such as AWS::ECS::Service ) also has a Ref to the same role, add a DependsOn attribute to the resource to make the resource depend on the external policy. This dependency ensures that the role’s policy is available throughout the resource’s lifecycle. For example, when you delete a stack with an AWS::ECS::Service resource, the DependsOn attribute ensures that AWS CloudFormation deletes the AWS::ECS::Service resource before deleting its role’s policy.

  • role_name (Optional[str]) –

    A name for the IAM role, up to 64 characters in length. For valid values, see the RoleName parameter for the `CreateRole <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/APIReference/API_CreateRole.html>`_ action in the IAM User Guide . This parameter allows (per its regex pattern ) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: _+=,.@-. The role name must be unique within the account. Role names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create roles named both “Role1” and “role1”. If you don’t specify a name, AWS CloudFormation generates a unique physical ID and uses that ID for the role name. If you specify a name, you must specify the CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM value to acknowledge your template’s capabilities. For more information, see Acknowledging IAM Resources in AWS CloudFormation Templates . .. epigraph:: Naming an IAM resource can cause an unrecoverable error if you reuse the same template in multiple Regions. To prevent this, we recommend using Fn::Join and AWS::Region to create a Region-specific name, as in the following example: {"Fn::Join": ["", [{"Ref": "AWS::Region"}, {"Ref": "MyResourceName"}]]} .

  • tags (Optional[Sequence[Union[CfnTag, Dict[str, Any]]]]) – A list of tags that are attached to the role. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide .

Methods

add_deletion_override(path)

Syntactic sugar for addOverride(path, undefined).

Parameters:

path (str) – The path of the value to delete.

Return type:

None

add_depends_on(target)

Indicates that this resource depends on another resource and cannot be provisioned unless the other resource has been successfully provisioned.

This can be used for resources across stacks (or nested stack) boundaries and the dependency will automatically be transferred to the relevant scope.

Parameters:

target (CfnResource) –

Return type:

None

add_metadata(key, value)

Add a value to the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.

Parameters:
  • key (str) –

  • value (Any) –

See:

Return type:

None

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/metadata-section-structure.html

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.

add_override(path, value)

Adds an override to the synthesized CloudFormation resource.

To add a property override, either use addPropertyOverride or prefix path with “Properties.” (i.e. Properties.TopicName).

If the override is nested, separate each nested level using a dot (.) in the path parameter. If there is an array as part of the nesting, specify the index in the path.

To include a literal . in the property name, prefix with a \. In most programming languages you will need to write this as "\\." because the \ itself will need to be escaped.

For example:

cfn_resource.add_override("Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.0.Projection.NonKeyAttributes", ["myattribute"])
cfn_resource.add_override("Properties.GlobalSecondaryIndexes.1.ProjectionType", "INCLUDE")

would add the overrides Example:

"Properties": {
   "GlobalSecondaryIndexes": [
     {
       "Projection": {
         "NonKeyAttributes": [ "myattribute" ]
         ...
       }
       ...
     },
     {
       "ProjectionType": "INCLUDE"
       ...
     },
   ]
   ...
}

The value argument to addOverride will not be processed or translated in any way. Pass raw JSON values in here with the correct capitalization for CloudFormation. If you pass CDK classes or structs, they will be rendered with lowercased key names, and CloudFormation will reject the template.

Parameters:
  • path (str) –

    • The path of the property, you can use dot notation to override values in complex types. Any intermdediate keys will be created as needed.

  • value (Any) –

    • The value. Could be primitive or complex.

Return type:

None

add_property_deletion_override(property_path)

Adds an override that deletes the value of a property from the resource definition.

Parameters:

property_path (str) – The path to the property.

Return type:

None

add_property_override(property_path, value)

Adds an override to a resource property.

Syntactic sugar for addOverride("Properties.<...>", value).

Parameters:
  • property_path (str) – The path of the property.

  • value (Any) – The value.

Return type:

None

apply_removal_policy(policy=None, *, apply_to_update_replace_policy=None, default=None)

Sets the deletion policy of the resource based on the removal policy specified.

The Removal Policy controls what happens to this resource when it stops being managed by CloudFormation, either because you’ve removed it from the CDK application or because you’ve made a change that requires the resource to be replaced.

The resource can be deleted (RemovalPolicy.DESTROY), or left in your AWS account for data recovery and cleanup later (RemovalPolicy.RETAIN).

Parameters:
  • policy (Optional[RemovalPolicy]) –

  • apply_to_update_replace_policy (Optional[bool]) – Apply the same deletion policy to the resource’s “UpdateReplacePolicy”. Default: true

  • default (Optional[RemovalPolicy]) – The default policy to apply in case the removal policy is not defined. Default: - Default value is resource specific. To determine the default value for a resoure, please consult that specific resource’s documentation.

Return type:

None

get_att(attribute_name)

Returns a token for an runtime attribute of this resource.

Ideally, use generated attribute accessors (e.g. resource.arn), but this can be used for future compatibility in case there is no generated attribute.

Parameters:

attribute_name (str) – The name of the attribute.

Return type:

Reference

get_metadata(key)

Retrieve a value value from the CloudFormation Resource Metadata.

Parameters:

key (str) –

See:

Return type:

Any

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/metadata-section-structure.html

Note that this is a different set of metadata from CDK node metadata; this metadata ends up in the stack template under the resource, whereas CDK node metadata ends up in the Cloud Assembly.

inspect(inspector)

Examines the CloudFormation resource and discloses attributes.

Parameters:

inspector (TreeInspector) –

  • tree inspector to collect and process attributes.

Return type:

None

override_logical_id(new_logical_id)

Overrides the auto-generated logical ID with a specific ID.

Parameters:

new_logical_id (str) – The new logical ID to use for this stack element.

Return type:

None

to_string()

Returns a string representation of this construct.

Return type:

str

Returns:

a string representation of this resource

policies

Adds or updates an inline policy document that is embedded in the specified IAM role.

When you embed an inline policy in a role, the inline policy is used as part of the role’s access (permissions) policy. The role’s trust policy is created at the same time as the role. You can update a role’s trust policy later. For more information about IAM roles, go to Using Roles to Delegate Permissions and Federate Identities .

A role can also have an attached managed policy. For information about policies, see Managed Policies and Inline Policies in the IAM User Guide .

For information about limits on the number of inline policies that you can embed with a role, see Limitations on IAM Entities in the IAM User Guide . .. epigraph:

If an external policy (such as ``AWS::IAM::Policy`` or ``AWS::IAM::ManagedPolicy`` ) has a ``Ref`` to a role and if a resource (such as ``AWS::ECS::Service`` ) also has a ``Ref`` to the same role, add a ``DependsOn`` attribute to the resource to make the resource depend on the external policy. This dependency ensures that the role's policy is available throughout the resource's lifecycle. For example, when you delete a stack with an ``AWS::ECS::Service`` resource, the ``DependsOn`` attribute ensures that AWS CloudFormation deletes the ``AWS::ECS::Service`` resource before deleting its role's policy.

ref

Return a string that will be resolved to a CloudFormation { Ref } for this element.

If, by any chance, the intrinsic reference of a resource is not a string, you could coerce it to an IResolvable through Lazy.any({ produce: resource.ref }).

role_name

A name for the IAM role, up to 64 characters in length.

For valid values, see the RoleName parameter for the `CreateRole <https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/APIReference/API_CreateRole.html>`_ action in the IAM User Guide .

This parameter allows (per its regex pattern ) a string of characters consisting of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces.
