IAM policy wizard and repositories
In the midst of all the recent EC2 excitement, we released an easy to use point and click wizard for creating your IAM policies along with the ability to setup repositories for storing them. This will greatly simplify your workflow when setting up and using IAM policies. Currently you can use S3 buckets as policy repositories, and we are also adding support for other kinds of repositories.
Select your repository and you can create a new IAM policy using the wizard. You create statements and then generate a policy from it.
Select the actions for your policy. We have separated the actions by category for EC2 so it is easy to find what you need :-)
Specify a resource if you like.
Add any optional conditions to apply to this statement.
Click to add this statement. You can add more statements and when you are ready, generate a policy from these statements.
Provide a name for this policy file so we can save it to your repository. That's it! Now this policy will be available to you everywhere in Ylastic that you need access to it.
So if you need to assign this policy to one of your IAM groups or users, click the assign policy button and select it!
SImple and easy to use IAM management :-)
