AWS::SSO::InstanceAccessControlAttributeConfiguration

Focus mode
AWS::SSO::InstanceAccessControlAttributeConfiguration - AWS CloudFormation
Filter View

Enables the attribute-based access control (ABAC) feature for the specified IAM Identity Center instance. You can also specify new attributes to add to your ABAC configuration during the enabling process. For more information about ABAC, see Attribute-Based Access Control in the IAM Identity Center User Guide.

Note

The InstanceAccessControlAttributeConfiguration property has been deprecated but is still supported for backwards compatibility purposes. We recommend that you use the AccessControlAttributes property instead.

Return values

Ref

Specifies the IAM Identity Center identity store attributes to add to your ABAC configuration. When using an external identity provider as an identity source, you can pass attributes through the SAML assertion. Doing so provides an alternative to configuring attributes from the IAM Identity Center identity store. If a SAML assertion passes any of these attributes, IAM Identity Center will replace the attribute value with the value from the IAM Identity Center identity store.

Examples

Enabling and configuring attributes used for access control in IAM Identity Center

The following example enables ABAC in IAM Identity Center and creates a new attribute key CostCenter that is mapped to the Value “${path:enterprise.costCenter}” which is coming from your identity source.

JSON

{ "Resources": { "ABAC": { "Type": "AWS::SSO::InstanceAccessControlAttributeConfiguration", "Properties": { "InstanceArn": "arn:aws:sso:::instance/ssoins-instanceId", "AccessControlAttributes": [ { "Key": "CostCenter", "Value": { "Source": [ "${path:enterprise.costCenter}" ] } } ] } } } }

YAML

Resources: ABAC: Type: 'AWS::SSO::InstanceAccessControlAttributeConfiguration' Properties: InstanceArn: 'arn:aws:sso:::instance/ssoins-instanceId' AccessControlAttributes: - Key: CostCenter Value: Source: - '${path:enterprise.costCenter}'
