ListPolicies

Lists all the managed policies that are available in your Astran Continuity Cloud account, including your own customer-defined managed policies and all Astran Continuity Cloud managed policies.

You can filter the list of policies that is returned using the optional OnlyAttached, Scope, and PathPrefixparameters. For example, to list only the customer managed policies in your Astran Continuity Cloud account, set Scope to Local. To list only Astran Continuity Cloud managed policies, set Scope to Astran.

You can paginate the results using the MaxItems and Markerparameters.

For more information about managed policies, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.

note

IAM resource-listing operations return a subset of the available attributes for the resource. To view all of the information for a customer manged policy, see GetPolicy.

Request Parameters​

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

Marker

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1.

Pattern: [\u0020-\u00FF]+

Required: No

MaxItems

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 1000.

Required: No

OnlyAttached

A flag to filter the results to only the attached policies.

When OnlyAttached is true, the returned list contains only the policies that are attached to an IAM user, group, or role. When OnlyAttached is false, or when the parameter is not included, all policies are returned.

Type: Boolean

Required: No

PathPrefix

The path prefix for filtering the results. This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/), listing all policies. This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 512.

Pattern: ((/[A-Za-z0-9\.,\+@=_-]+)*)/

Required: No

Scope

The scope to use for filtering the results.

To list only AWS managed policies, set Scope to AWS. To list only the customer managed policies in your AWS account, set Scope to Local.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, or if it is set to All, all policies are returned.

Type: String

Valid Values: All | Astran | Local

Required: No

Response Elements​

The following elements are returned by the service.

IsTruncated

A flag that indicates whether there are more items to return. If your results were truncated, you can make a subsequent pagination request using the Markerrequest parameter to retrieve more items. Note that IAM might return fewer than the MaxItems number of results even when there are more results available. We recommend that you check IsTruncated after every call to ensure that you receive all your results.

Type: Boolean

Marker

When IsTruncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

Type: String

Policies.member.N

A list of policies.

Type: Array of Policy objects

Errors​

InternalError

The request processing has failed because of an unknown error, exception or failure.

HTTP Status Code: 500
