Allow IAM users or groups to access Infrastructure Performance
Any user user that signs in to the AWS Management Console or AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) must have permissions to access specific resources. You provide those permissions by using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), through policies.
The following procedure shows you how to attach an IAM policy to a user or group that allows full access to Infrastructure Performance.
Note
We recommend creating a new IAM policy that grants only the permissions necessary to use Infrastructure Performance.
