PolicyAttachment

Learn how to attach AWS IAM Policies to Roles, Users, or Groups using Alchemy to manage permissions effectively.

The PolicyAttachment resource lets you attach AWS IAM policies to IAM roles.

Minimal Example

Attach an AWS managed policy to a role:

import { PolicyAttachment } from "alchemy/aws";

const adminAccess = await PolicyAttachment("admin-policy", {
  policyArn: "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AdministratorAccess",
  roleName: role.name,
});

Attach Custom Policy

Attach a custom policy created with the Policy resource:

import { PolicyAttachment } from "alchemy/aws";

const customPolicy = await PolicyAttachment("custom-policy", {
  policyArn: policy.arn,
  roleName: role.name,
});

Multiple Policy Attachments

Attach multiple policies to a role:

import { PolicyAttachment } from "alchemy/aws";

const s3Access = await PolicyAttachment("s3-access", {
  policyArn: "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AmazonS3FullAccess",
  roleName: role.name,
});

const sqsAccess = await PolicyAttachment("sqs-access", {
  policyArn: "arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/AmazonSQSFullAccess",
  roleName: role.name,
});
