Access Control
You can use IAM policies to control this action's access to Amazon SWF resources as follows:
- Use a
Resource element with the domain name to limit the action to only specified domains. - Use an
Action element to allow or deny permission to call this action. - Constrain the following parameters by using a
Condition element with the appropriate keys. -
activityType.name : String constraint. The key is swf:activityType.name . -
activityType.version : String constraint. The key is swf:activityType.version .
If the caller does not have sufficient permissions to invoke the action, or the parameter values fall outside the specified constraints, the action fails by throwing OperationNotPermitted . For details and example IAM policies, see Using IAM to Manage Access to Amazon SWF Workflows .
