Required permissions for using custom IAM policies to manage access to the Amazon Connect admin website

If you're using custom IAM policies to manage access to the Amazon Connect admin website, your users need some or all of the permissions listed in this article, depending on the tasks they need to do.

Note

Using connect:* in a custom IAM policy grants your users all of the Amazon Connect permissions listed in this article.

Note

Certain pages on the Amazon Connect admin website, such as Tasks and Customer Profiles, require that you add permissions to your inline policies.

AmazonConnect_FullAccess policy

To allow full read/write access to Amazon Connect, you must attach two policies to your users, groups, or roles. Attach the AmazonConnect_FullAccess policy and a custom policy with the following contents:

{ 
    "Version": "2012-10-17", 
    "Statement": [ 
        { 
            "Sid": "AttachAnyPolicyToAmazonConnectRole", 
            "Effect": "Allow", 
            "Action": "iam:PutRolePolicy", 
            "Resource": "arn:aws:iam::*:role/aws-service-role/connect.amazonaws.com/AWSServiceRoleForAmazonConnect*" 
        } 
    ] 
} 

To allow a user to create an instance, ensure that they have the permissions granted by the AmazonConnect_FullAccess policy.

When you use AmazonConnect_FullAccess policy, note the following:

• Additional privileges are required to create an Amazon S3 bucket with a name of your choosing, or to use an existing bucket while creating or updating an instance from the Amazon Connect admin website. If you choose default storage locations for your call recordings, chat transcripts, call transcripts, and other data, the system prepends "amazon-connect-" to those objects.

• The aws/connect KMS key is available to use as a default encryption option. To use a custom encryption key, assign users additional KMS privileges.

• Assign users additional privileges to attach other AWS resources like Amazon Polly, Live Media Streaming, Data Streaming, and Lex bots to their Amazon Connect instances.

AmazonConnectReadOnlyAccess policy

To allow read-only access, you need to attach only the AmazonConnectReadOnlyAccess policy.

Amazon Connect admin website home page

The following image shows a sample Amazon Connect admin website home page, with an arrow pointing to the instance alias. Choose the instance alias to navigate to the detailed instance pages.

Detailed instance pages

The following image shows the navigation menu you use to access each of the detailed instance pages.

To access the detailed instance pages, you need permissions to the Amazon Connect admin website home page (describe/list). Or, use the AmazonConnectReadOnlyAccess policy.

The following tables list the granular permissions for each detailed instance page.

Note

To perform Edit actions, users also need List and Describe permissions.
