CreateAccountAssignment

Assigns access to a principal for a specified AWS account using a specified permission set.

Note

The term principal here refers to a user or group that is defined in IAM Identity Center.

Note

As part of a successful CreateAccountAssignment call, the specified permission set will automatically be provisioned to the account in the form of an IAM policy. That policy is attached to the IAM role created in IAM Identity Center. If the permission set is subsequently updated, the corresponding IAM policies attached to roles in your accounts will not be updated automatically. In this case, you must call ProvisionPermissionSet to make these updates.

Note

After a successful response, call DescribeAccountAssignmentCreationStatus to describe the status of an assignment creation request.
