Some actions support multiple resource types. If you limit resource access with the Resource element in an IAM policy, you must include an ARN or pattern for each required resource type. Required resources are indicated in the table with an asterisk (*). If the action has one or more required resources, the caller must have permission to use the action with those resources. If the column includes a resource type, then you can specify an ARN of that type in a statement with that action. If there is no value for this column, you must specify all resources ('*') to which the policy applies in the Resource element of your policy statement. The Resource types column of the Actions table indicates whether each action supports resource-level permissions. Alternatively, some operations require several different actions. However, in some cases, a single action controls access to more than one operation. When you use an action in a policy, you usually allow or deny access to the API operation or CLI command with the same name.
