Adds or updates an inline policy document that is embedded in the
specified IAM user.
An IAM user can also have a managed policy attached to it. To attach a
managed policy to a user, use
attach_user_policy
. To create a new managed
policy, use create_policy
. For information about
policies, see Managed Policies and Inline Policies
in the IAM User Guide.
For information about limits on the number of inline policies that you
can embed in a user, see Limitations on IAM Entities
in the IAM User Guide.
Because policy documents can be large, you should use POST rather than
GET when calling put_user_policy
. For general
information about using the Query API with IAM, go to Making Query Requests
in the IAM User Guide.
