IPolicyEngine Interface ​

Contains all properties and methods for both created and imported policy engines.

Properties ​

descriptionmay be undefinedstringdescriptionmay be undefinedstrdescriptionmay be undefinedStringDescriptionmay be undefinedstringDescriptionmay be undefined*string#
The description of the policy engine.
The environment this resource belongs to.
notes

For resources that are created and managed in a Stack (those created by creating new class instances like new Role(), new Bucket(), etc.), this is always the same as the environment of the stack they belong to.

For referenced resources (those obtained from referencing methods like Role.fromRoleArn(), Bucket.fromBucketName(), etc.), they might be different than the stack they were imported into.

Methods ​

applyRemovalPolicy(policy: RemovalPolicy): voiddef apply_removal_policy(self, policy: RemovalPolicy) -> Nonepublic void applyRemovalPolicy(RemovalPolicy policy)public void ApplyRemovalPolicy(RemovalPolicy policy)func ApplyRemovalPolicy(Policy RemovalPolicy)#
Apply the given removal policy to this resource.
notes

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).

grant(grantee: IGrantable, ...actions: string[]): Grantdef grant(self, grantee: IGrantable, actions: str) -> Grantpublic Grant grant(IGrantable grantee, String actions)public Grant Grant(IGrantable grantee, string actions)func Grant(Grantee IGrantable, Actions *string) Grant#
Grants IAM actions to the IAM Principal.
2 parameters

Parameters

  • granteegranteegranteegranteeGrantee — - The IAM principal to grant permissions to.
  • actionsactionsactionsactionsActions — - The actions to grant.
grantEvaluate(grantee: IGrantable): Grantdef grant_evaluate(self, grantee: IGrantable) -> Grantpublic Grant grantEvaluate(IGrantable grantee)public Grant GrantEvaluate(IGrantable grantee)func GrantEvaluate(Grantee IGrantable) Grant#
Grants permissions to evaluate policies at runtime .

This is the primary permission needed by Gateway execution roles to evaluate authorization decisions during agent requests. Grant this to roles that need to call AuthorizeAction or PartiallyAuthorizeActions.

1 parameter

Parameters

  • granteegranteegranteegranteeGrantee — - The IAM principal to grant evaluation permissions to.
grantEvaluateForGateway(grantee: IGrantable, gateway: IGateway): Grantdef grant_evaluate_for_gateway(self, grantee: IGrantable, gateway: IGateway) -> Grantpublic Grant grantEvaluateForGateway(IGrantable grantee, IGateway gateway)public Grant GrantEvaluateForGateway(IGrantable grantee, IGateway gateway)func GrantEvaluateForGateway(Grantee IGrantable, Gateway IGateway) Grant#
Grants the full set of permissions required for a gateway execution role to use this policy engine, correctly scoped to both the policy engine and gateway ARNs.
notes · 2 parameters

Per the AWS docs, AuthorizeAction and PartiallyAuthorizeActions require both the policy engine ARN and the gateway ARN as resources, while GetPolicyEngine only needs the policy engine ARN.

This follows the same pattern as Lambda's grantInvokeVersion(grantee, version).

Parameters

  • granteegranteegranteegranteeGrantee — - The IAM principal (gateway execution role) to grant permissions to.
  • gatewaygatewaygatewaygatewayGateway — - The gateway that will use this policy engine [disable-awslint:prefer-ref-interface].
grantRead(grantee: IGrantable): Grantdef grant_read(self, grantee: IGrantable) -> Grantpublic Grant grantRead(IGrantable grantee)public Grant GrantRead(IGrantable grantee)func GrantRead(Grantee IGrantable) Grant#
Grants read permissions on the PolicyEngine.

This grants runtime read access to policy engine configuration. Use this for monitoring, observability, or read-only administrative roles.

1 parameter

Parameters

  • granteegranteegranteegranteeGrantee — - The IAM principal to grant read permissions to.

Return the given named metric for this policy engine.
2 parameters

Parameters

  • metricNamemetric_namemetricNamemetricNameMetricName — The name of the metric.
  • propspropspropspropsProps — Optional metric configuration.
metricAuthorizationLatency(props?: MetricOptions): Metricdef metric_authorization_latency(self, props: typing.Optional[MetricOptions] = None) -> Metricpublic Metric metricAuthorizationLatency(MetricOptions props)public Metric MetricAuthorizationLatency(MetricOptions? props = null)func MetricAuthorizationLatency(Props MetricOptions) Metric#
Return a metric measuring the authorization latency for this policy engine.

This metric represents the time taken to evaluate authorization policies.

1 parameter

Parameters

  • propspropspropspropsProps — Optional metric configuration.
metricDeniedRequests(props?: MetricOptions): Metricdef metric_denied_requests(self, props: typing.Optional[MetricOptions] = None) -> Metricpublic Metric metricDeniedRequests(MetricOptions props)public Metric MetricDeniedRequests(MetricOptions? props = null)func MetricDeniedRequests(Props MetricOptions) Metric#
Return a metric containing the number of denied authorization requests for this policy engine.

This metric tracks authorization requests that were explicitly denied by policies.

1 parameter

Parameters

  • propspropspropspropsProps — Optional metric configuration.
metricErrors(props?: MetricOptions): Metricdef metric_errors(self, props: typing.Optional[MetricOptions] = None) -> Metricpublic Metric metricErrors(MetricOptions props)public Metric MetricErrors(MetricOptions? props = null)func MetricErrors(Props MetricOptions) Metric#
Return a metric containing the number of errors during authorization for this policy engine.

This metric tracks errors encountered during policy evaluation.

1 parameter

Parameters

  • propspropspropspropsProps — Optional metric configuration.
with(...mixins: IMixin[]): IConstructdef with(self, mixins: IMixin) -> IConstructpublic IConstruct with(IMixin mixins)public IConstruct With(IMixin mixins)func With(Mixins IMixin) IConstruct#
Applies one or more mixins to this construct.

Mixins are applied in order. The list of constructs is captured at the start of the call, so constructs added by a mixin will not be visited.

1 parameter · returns

Parameters

  • mixinsmixinsmixinsmixinsMixins — The mixins to apply.

Returns: This construct for chaining
