Container for the parameters to the GetCallerIdentity operation.
Returns details about the IAM user or role whose credentials are used to call the
operation.
No permissions are required to perform this operation. If an administrator attaches
a policy to your identity that explicitly denies access to the sts:GetCallerIdentity
action, you can still perform this operation. Permissions are not required because
the same information is returned when access is denied. To view an example response,
see I
Am Not Authorized to Perform: iam:DeleteVirtualMFADevice in the IAM User Guide.
