The OIDC provider that you create with this operation can be used as a principal in a role's trust policy. Such a policy establishes a trust relationship between AWS and the OIDC provider.
When you create the IAM OIDC provider, you specify the following:
The URL of the OIDC identity provider (IdP) to trust
A list of client IDs (also known as audiences) that identify the application or applications that are allowed to authenticate using the OIDC provider
A list of thumbprints of one or more server certificates that the IdP uses
You get all of this information from the OIDC IdP that you want to use to access AWS.
create_open_i_d_connect_provider(Client, Input, Options)
create_policy(Client, Input)
Creates a new managed policy for your AWS account.
This operation creates a policy version with a version identifier of
v1
and sets v1 as the policy's default version. For more
information about policy versions, see Versioning
for Managed Policies in the IAM User Guide.
create_policy(Client, Input, Options)
create_policy_version(Client, Input)
Creates a new version of the specified managed policy. To update a managed policy, you create a new policy version. A managed policy can have up to five versions. If the policy has five versions, you must delete an existing version using DeletePolicyVersion before you create a new version.
Optionally, you can set the new version as the policy's default version. The default version is the version that is in effect for the IAM users, groups, and roles to which the policy is attached.
For more information about managed policy versions, see Versioning for Managed Policies in the IAM User Guide.create_policy_version(Client, Input, Options)
create_role(Client, Input)
Creates a new role for your AWS account. For more information about roles, go to IAM Roles. The number and size of IAM resources in an AWS account are limited. For more information, see IAM and STS Quotas in the IAM User Guide.
create_role(Client, Input, Options)
create_s_a_m_l_provider(Client, Input)
Creates an IAM resource that describes an identity provider (IdP) that supports SAML 2.0.
The SAML provider resource that you create with this operation can be used as a principal in an IAM role's trust policy. Such a policy can enable federated users who sign in using the SAML IdP to assume the role. You can create an IAM role that supports Web-based single sign-on (SSO) to the AWS Management Console or one that supports API access to AWS.
When you create the SAML provider resource, you upload a SAML metadata document that you get from your IdP. That document includes the issuer's name, expiration information, and keys that can be used to validate the SAML authentication response (assertions) that the IdP sends. You must generate the metadata document using the identity management software that is used as your organization's IdP.
create_s_a_m_l_provider(Client, Input, Options)
create_service_linked_role(Client, Input)
Creates an IAM role that is linked to a specific AWS service. The service controls the attached policies and when the role can be deleted. This helps ensure that the service is not broken by an unexpectedly changed or deleted role, which could put your AWS resources into an unknown state. Allowing the service to control the role helps improve service stability and proper cleanup when a service and its role are no longer needed. For more information, see Using Service-Linked Roles in the IAM User Guide.
To attach a policy to this service-linked role, you must make the request using the AWS service that depends on this role.create_service_linked_role(Client, Input, Options)
create_service_specific_credential(Client, Input)
Generates a set of credentials consisting of a user name and password that can be used to access the service specified in the request. These credentials are generated by IAM, and can be used only for the specified service.
You can have a maximum of two sets of service-specific credentials for each supported service per user.
The only supported service at this time is AWS CodeCommit.
You can reset the password to a new service-generated value by calling ResetServiceSpecificCredential.
For more information about service-specific credentials, see Using IAM with AWS CodeCommit: Git Credentials, SSH Keys, and AWS Access Keys in the IAM User Guide.create_service_specific_credential(Client, Input, Options)
create_user(Client, Input)
Creates a new IAM user for your AWS account.
The number and size of IAM resources in an AWS account are limited. For more information, see IAM and STS Quotas in the IAM User Guide.create_user(Client, Input, Options)
create_virtual_m_f_a_device(Client, Input)
Creates a new virtual MFA device for the AWS account. After creating the virtual MFA, use EnableMFADevice to attach the MFA device to an IAM user. For more information about creating and working with virtual MFA devices, go to Using a Virtual MFA Device in the IAM User Guide.
The number and size of IAM resources in an AWS account are limited. For more information, see IAM and STS Quotas in the IAM User Guide.
create_virtual_m_f_a_device(Client, Input, Options)
deactivate_m_f_a_device(Client, Input)

For more information about creating and working with virtual MFA devices, go to Enabling a Virtual Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) Device in the IAM User Guide.deactivate_m_f_a_device(Client, Input, Options)
delete_access_key(Client, Input)
Deletes the access key pair associated with the specified IAM user.
If you do not specify a user name, IAM determines the user name implicitly based on the AWS access key ID signing the request. This operation works for access keys under the AWS account. Consequently, you can use this operation to manage AWS account root user credentials even if the AWS account has no associated users.delete_access_key(Client, Input, Options)
delete_account_alias(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified AWS account alias. For information about using an AWS account alias, see Using an Alias for Your AWS Account ID in the IAM User Guide.

delete_login_profile(Client, Input, Options)
delete_open_i_d_connect_provider(Client, Input)
Deletes an OpenID Connect identity provider (IdP) resource object in IAM.
Deleting an IAM OIDC provider resource does not update any roles that reference the provider as a principal in their trust policies. Any attempt to assume a role that references a deleted provider fails.
This operation is idempotent; it does not fail or return an error if you call the operation for a provider that does not exist.delete_open_i_d_connect_provider(Client, Input, Options)
delete_policy(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified managed policy.
Before you can delete a managed policy, you must first detach the policy from all users, groups, and roles that it is attached to. In addition, you must delete all the policy's versions. The following steps describe the process for deleting a managed policy:
Detach the policy from all users, groups, and roles that the policy is attached to, using the DetachUserPolicy, DetachGroupPolicy, or DetachRolePolicy API operations. To list all the users, groups, and roles that a policy is attached to, use ListEntitiesForPolicy.
Delete all versions of the policy using DeletePolicyVersion. To list the policy's versions, use ListPolicyVersions. You cannot use DeletePolicyVersion to delete the version that is marked as the default version. You delete the policy's default version in the next step of the process.
Delete the policy (this automatically deletes the policy's default version) using this API.
delete_policy(Client, Input, Options)
delete_policy_version(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified version from the specified managed policy.
You cannot delete the default version from a policy using this API. To delete the default version from a policy, use DeletePolicy. To find out which version of a policy is marked as the default version, use ListPolicyVersions.
For information about versions for managed policies, see Versioning for Managed Policies in the IAM User Guide.delete_policy_version(Client, Input, Options)
delete_role(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified role. The role must not have any policies attached. For more information about roles, go to Working with Roles.
delete_role(Client, Input, Options)
delete_role_permissions_boundary(Client, Input)
Deletes the permissions boundary for the specified IAM role.
delete_role_permissions_boundary(Client, Input, Options)
delete_role_policy(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified inline policy that is embedded in the specified IAM role.
A role can also have managed policies attached to it. To detach a managed policy from a role, use DetachRolePolicy. For more information about policies, refer to Managed Policies and Inline Policies in the IAM User Guide.delete_role_policy(Client, Input, Options)
delete_s_a_m_l_provider(Client, Input)
Deletes a SAML provider resource in IAM.
Deleting the provider resource from IAM does not update any roles that reference the SAML provider resource's ARN as a principal in their trust policies. Any attempt to assume a role that references a non-existent provider resource ARN fails.
delete_s_a_m_l_provider(Client, Input, Options)
delete_s_s_h_public_key(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified SSH public key.
The SSH public key deleted by this operation is used only for authenticating the associated IAM user to an AWS CodeCommit repository. For more information about using SSH keys to authenticate to an AWS CodeCommit repository, see Set up AWS CodeCommit for SSH Connections in the AWS CodeCommit User Guide.delete_s_s_h_public_key(Client, Input, Options)
delete_server_certificate(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified server certificate.
For more information about working with server certificates, see Working with Server Certificates in the IAM User Guide. This topic also includes a list of AWS services that can use the server certificates that you manage with IAM.
delete_server_certificate(Client, Input, Options)
delete_service_linked_role(Client, Input)
Submits a service-linked role deletion request and returns a
DeletionTaskId
, which you can use to check the status of the
deletion. Before you call this operation, confirm that the role has no
active sessions and that any resources used by the role in the linked
service are deleted. If you call this operation more than once for the
same service-linked role and an earlier deletion task is not complete,
then the DeletionTaskId
of the earlier request is returned.
If you submit a deletion request for a service-linked role whose linked service is still accessing a resource, then the deletion task fails. If it fails, the GetServiceLinkedRoleDeletionStatus API operation returns the reason for the failure, usually including the resources that must be deleted. To delete the service-linked role, you must first remove those resources from the linked service and then submit the deletion request again. Resources are specific to the service that is linked to the role. For more information about removing resources from a service, see the AWS documentation for your service.
For more information about service-linked roles, see Roles Terms and Concepts: AWS Service-Linked Role in the IAM User Guide.delete_service_linked_role(Client, Input, Options)
delete_service_specific_credential(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified service-specific credential.
delete_service_specific_credential(Client, Input, Options)
delete_signing_certificate(Client, Input)
Deletes a signing certificate associated with the specified IAM user.
If you do not specify a user name, IAM determines the user name implicitly based on the AWS access key ID signing the request. This operation works for access keys under the AWS account. Consequently, you can use this operation to manage AWS account root user credentials even if the AWS account has no associated IAM users.delete_signing_certificate(Client, Input, Options)
delete_user(Client, Input)
Deletes the specified IAM user. Unlike the AWS Management Console, when you delete a user programmatically, you must delete the items attached to the user manually, or the deletion fails. For more information, see Deleting an IAM User. Before attempting to delete a user, remove the following items:
Password (DeleteLoginProfile)
Access keys (DeleteAccessKey)
Signing certificate (DeleteSigningCertificate)
SSH public key (DeleteSSHPublicKey)
Git credentials (DeleteServiceSpecificCredential)
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) device (DeactivateMFADevice, DeleteVirtualMFADevice)

generate_credential_report(Client, Input, Options)
generate_organizations_access_report(Client, Input)
Generates a report for service last accessed data for AWS Organizations. You can generate a report for any entities (organization root, organizational unit, or account) or policies in your organization.
To call this operation, you must be signed in using your AWS Organizations master account credentials. You can use your long-term IAM user or root user credentials, or temporary credentials from assuming an IAM role. SCPs must be enabled for your organization root. You must have the required IAM and AWS Organizations permissions. For more information, see Refining Permissions Using Service Last Accessed Data in the IAM User Guide.
You can generate a service last accessed data report for entities by specifying only the entity's path. This data includes a list of services that are allowed by any service control policies (SCPs) that apply to the entity.
You can generate a service last accessed data report for a policy by specifying an entity's path and an optional AWS Organizations policy ID. This data includes a list of services that are allowed by the specified SCP.
For each service in both report types, the data includes the most recent account activity that the policy allows to account principals in the entity or the entity's children. For important information about the data, reporting period, permissions required, troubleshooting, and supported Regions see Reducing Permissions Using Service Last Accessed Data in the IAM User Guide.
JobId
. Use this
parameter in the GetOrganizationsAccessReport
operation to check the status of the report generation. To check the
status of this request, use the JobId
parameter in the
GetOrganizationsAccessReport
operation and test the
JobStatus
response parameter. When the job is complete, you
can retrieve the report.
To generate a service last accessed data report for entities, specify an entity path without specifying the optional AWS Organizations policy ID. The type of entity that you specify determines the data returned in the report.
Root – When you specify the organizations root as the entity, the resulting report lists all of the services allowed by SCPs that are attached to your root. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in your organization except the master account, because the master account is not limited by SCPs.
OU – When you specify an organizational unit (OU) as the entity, the resulting report lists all of the services allowed by SCPs that are attached to the OU and its parents. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in the OU or its children. This data excludes the master account, because the master account is not limited by SCPs.
Master account – When you specify the master account, the resulting report lists all AWS services, because the master account is not limited by SCPs. For each service, the report includes data for only the master account.
Account – When you specify another account as the entity, the resulting report lists all of the services allowed by SCPs that are attached to the account and its parents. For each service, the report includes data for only the specified account.
To generate a service last accessed data report for policies, specify an entity path and the optional AWS Organizations policy ID. The type of entity that you specify determines the data returned for each service.
Root – When you specify the root entity and a policy ID, the resulting report lists all of the services that are allowed by the specified SCP. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in your organization to which the SCP applies. This data excludes the master account, because the master account is not limited by SCPs. If the SCP is not attached to any entities in the organization, then the report will return a list of services with no data.
OU – When you specify an OU entity and a policy ID, the resulting report lists all of the services that are allowed by the specified SCP. For each service, the report includes data for all accounts in the OU or its children to which the SCP applies. This means that other accounts outside the OU that are affected by the SCP might not be included in the data. This data excludes the master account, because the master account is not limited by SCPs. If the SCP is not attached to the OU or one of its children, the report will return a list of services with no data.
Master account – When you specify the master account, the resulting report lists all AWS services, because the master account is not limited by SCPs. If you specify a policy ID in the CLI or API, the policy is ignored. For each service, the report includes data for only the master account.
Account – When you specify another account entity and a policy ID, the resulting report lists all of the services that are allowed by the specified SCP. For each service, the report includes data for only the specified account. This means that other accounts in the organization that are affected by the SCP might not be included in the data. If the SCP is not attached to the account, the report will return a list of services with no data.
generate_organizations_access_report(Client, Input, Options)
generate_service_last_accessed_details(Client, Input)

set_security_token_service_preferences(Client, Input)
Sets the specified version of the global endpoint token as the token version used for the AWS account.
By default, AWS Security Token Service (STS) is available as a global
service, and all STS requests go to a single endpoint at
https://sts.amazonaws.com
. AWS recommends using Regional STS
endpoints to reduce latency, build in redundancy, and increase session
token availability. For information about Regional endpoints for STS, see
AWS
Regions and Endpoints in the AWS General Reference.
If you make an STS call to the global endpoint, the resulting session tokens might be valid in some Regions but not others. It depends on the version that is set in this operation. Version 1 tokens are valid only in AWS Regions that are available by default. These tokens do not work in manually enabled Regions, such as Asia Pacific (Hong Kong). Version 2 tokens are valid in all Regions. However, version 2 tokens are longer and might affect systems where you temporarily store tokens. For information, see Activating and Deactivating STS in an AWS Region in the IAM User Guide.
To view the current session token version, see theGlobalEndpointTokenVersion
entry in the response of the

tag_role(Client, Input)
Adds one or more tags to an IAM role. The role can be a regular role or a service-linked role. If a tag with the same key name already exists, then that tag is overwritten with the new value.
A tag consists of a key name and an associated value. By assigning tags to your resources, you can do the following:
Administrative grouping and discovery - Attach tags to resources to aid in organization and search. For example, you could search for all resources with the key name Project and the value MyImportantProject. Or search for all resources with the key name Cost Center and the value 41200.
Access control - Reference tags in IAM user-based and resource-based policies. You can use tags to restrict access to only an IAM user or role that has a specified tag attached. You can also restrict access to only those resources that have a certain tag attached. For examples of policies that show how to use tags to control access, see Control Access Using IAM Tags in the IAM User Guide.
Cost allocation - Use tags to help track which individuals and teams are using which AWS resources.
- Make sure that you have no invalid tags and that you do not exceed the allowed number of tags per role. In either case, the entire request fails and no tags are added to the role.
- AWS always interprets the tag
Value
as a single string. If you need to store an array, you can store comma-separated values in the string. However, you must interpret the value in your code.
