Changes the status of the specified access key from Active to Inactive, or vice versa. This operation can be used to disable a user's key as part of a key rotation workflow. If the UserName is not specified, the user name is determined implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID used t

Updates the password policy settings for the Amazon Web Services account. This operation does not support partial updates. No parameters are required, but if you do not specify a parameter, that parameter's value reverts to its default value. See the Request Parameters section for each parameter's

Updates the policy that grants an IAM entity permission to assume a role. This is typically referred to as the "role trust policy". For more information about roles, see Using roles to delegate permissions and federate identities.

Updates an existing delegation request with additional information. When the delegation request is updated, it reaches the PENDING_APPROVAL state. Once a delegation request has an owner, that owner gets a default permission to update the delegation request. For more details, see Managing Permissio

Updates the name and/or the path of the specified IAM group. You should understand the implications of changing a group's path or name. For more information, see Renaming users and groups in the IAM User Guide. The person making the request (the principal), must have permission to change the rol

The list that you pass with this operation completely replaces the existing list of thumbprints. (The lists are not merged.) Typically, you n

Updates the description or maximum session duration setting of a role.

Use UpdateRole instead. Modifies only the description of a role. This operation performs the same function as the Description parameter in the UpdateRole operation.

Updates the metadata document, SAML encryption settings, and private keys for an existing SAML provider. To rotate private keys, add your new private key and then remove the old key in a separate request.

Updates the name and/or the path of the specified server certificate stored in IAM. For more information about working with server certificates, see Working with server certificates in the IAM User Guide. This topic also includes a list of Amazon Web Services services that can use the server certifi

Sets the status of a service-specific credential to Active or Inactive. Service-specific credentials that are inactive cannot be used for authentication to the service. This operation can be used to disable a user's service-specific credential as part of a credential rotation work flow.
