Example 1: This example returns the list of available versions of the policy whose ARN is arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyManagedPolicy. To get the policy document for a specific version, use the Get-IAMPolicyVersion command and specify the VersionId of the one you want.

Get-IAMPolicyVersionList -PolicyArn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/MyManagedPolicy

Output:
