Shows how to use the AWS SDK for PHP to work with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM).

IAM is a web service for securely controlling access to AWS services. With IAM, you can centrally manage permissions in your AWS account.

• Running this code might result in charges to your AWS account. For more details, see AWS Pricing and Free Tier.
• Running the tests might result in charges to your AWS account.
• We recommend that you grant your code least privilege. At most, grant only the minimum permissions required to perform the task. For more information, see Grant least privilege.
• This code is not tested in every AWS Region. For more information, see AWS Regional Services.

For prerequisites, see the README in the php folder.

Code examples that show you how to perform the essential operations within a service.

• Learn the basics

Code excerpts that show you how to call individual service functions.

• CreateUser
• GetAccountPasswordPolicy
• GetPolicy
• GetRole
• ListAttachedRolePolicies

This example shows you how to create a user and assume a role.

• Create a user with no permissions.
• Create a role that grants permission to list Amazon S3 buckets for the account.
• Add a policy to let the user assume the role.
• Assume the role and list S3 buckets using temporary credentials, then clean up resources.
