Giving users permission to access Amazon Personalize

To provide your users access to Amazon Personalize, you create an IAM policy that grants permission to access your Amazon Personalize resources and pass a role to Amazon Personalize. Then you use that policy when you add permissions to your users, groups or roles.

Creating a new IAM policy for your users

Create an IAM policy that provides Amazon Personalize full access to your Amazon Personalize resources.

To use the JSON policy editor to create a policy

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the IAM console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/iam/.

2. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Policies.

   If this is your first time choosing Policies, the Welcome to Managed Policies page appears. Choose Get Started.

3. At the top of the page, choose Create policy.

4. In the Policy editor section, choose the JSON option.

5. Enter the following JSON policy document:

   {
       "Version": "2012-10-17",
       "Statement": [
           {
               "Effect": "Allow",
               "Action": [
                   "personalize:*"
               ],
               "Resource": "*"
           },
           {
               "Effect": "Allow",
               "Action": [
                   "iam:PassRole"
               ],
               "Resource": "*",
               "Condition": {
                   "StringEquals": {
                       "iam:PassedToService": "personalize.amazonaws.com"
                   }
               }
           }
       ]
   }

6. Choose Next.

   Note

   You can switch between the Visual and JSON editor options anytime. However, if you make changes or choose Next in the Visual editor, IAM might restructure your policy to optimize it for the visual editor. For more information, see Policy restructuring in the IAM User Guide.

7. On the Review and create page, enter a Policy name and a Description (optional) for the policy that you are creating. Review Permissions defined in this policy to see the permissions that are granted by your policy.

8. Choose Create policy to save your new policy.

To grant only the permissions required to perform a task in Amazon Personalize, modify the preceding policy to include only the required actions for your user. For a complete list of Amazon Personalize actions, see Actions, resources, and condition keys for Amazon Personalize.

Providing access to Amazon Personalize

Attach the new IAM policy when you provide permissions to your users.

To provide access, add permissions to your users, groups, or roles:

• Users and groups in AWS IAM Identity Center:

  Create a permission set. Follow the instructions in Create a permission set in the AWS IAM Identity Center User Guide.

• Users managed in IAM through an identity provider:

  Create a role for identity federation. Follow the instructions in Create a role for a third-party identity provider (federation) in the IAM User Guide.

• IAM users:

  • Create a role that your user can assume. Follow the instructions in Create a role for an IAM user in the IAM User Guide.

  • (Not recommended) Attach a policy directly to a user or add a user to a user group. Follow the instructions in Adding permissions to a user (console) in the IAM User Guide.
