Add Permission

sqs_add_permission R Documentation

Adds a permission to a queue for a specific principal

Description

Adds a permission to a queue for a specific principal. This allows sharing access to the queue.

When you create a queue, you have full control access rights for the queue. Only you, the owner of the queue, can grant or deny permissions to the queue. For more information about these permissions, see Allow Developers to Write Messages to a Shared Queue in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide.

  • add_permission generates a policy for you. You can use set_queue_attributes to upload your policy. For more information, see Using Custom Policies with the Amazon SQS Access Policy Language in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide.

  • An Amazon SQS policy can have a maximum of seven actions per statement.

  • To remove the ability to change queue permissions, you must deny permission to the add_permission, remove_permission, and set_queue_attributes actions in your IAM policy.

  • Amazon SQS add_permission does not support adding a non-account principal.

Cross-account permissions don't apply to this action. For more information, see Grant cross-account permissions to a role and a username in the Amazon SQS Developer Guide.
