Overview

An access policy that employs the JSON-based access policy language is used to grant access to APM resources. You can authorize a specified principal to perform actions on a specified CM resource through the access policy language.
The access policy syntax describes the basic elements and usage of the policy. For the description of the policy syntax, see Concepts.

Policy Syntax

CAM policy:
{
"version":"2.0",
"statement":
[
{
"effect":"effect",
"action":["action"],
"resource":["resource"],
"condition": {"key":{"value"}}
}
]
}


Element usage

version is required. Currently, only the value "2.0" is allowed.
statement describes the details of one or more permissions. This element contains a permission or permission set of other elements such as effect, action, resource, and condition. One policy has only one statement.
effect is required. It describes whether the declaration result is allow or explicit deny.
action is required. It specifies whether to allow or deny the operation. The operation can be an API (prefixed with name) or a feature set (a group of APIs, prefixed with permid).
resource is required. It describes the details of authorization. A resource is described in a six-segment format. Detailed resource definitions vary by product. For more information on how to specify resources, see the product documentation corresponding to the resource statement you are writing.
condition is optional. It describes the condition for the policy to take effect. A condition consists of operator, action key, and action value. A condition value may contain information such as time and IP address. Some services allow you to specify additional values in a condition.

Specifying an effect

If you don't explicitly grant access to (allow) a resource, access is implicitly denied. You can also explicitly deny access to a resource to ensure that a user cannot access it, even if another policy has granted access to it. The following example specifies an allow effect.
"effect" : "allow"

Specifying an action

APM defines console operations that can be specified in a policy. The specified operations are divided into reading part of APIs (apm:Describe\\*) and all APIs (apm:\\*) based on the operation nature.
Below is an example of specifying the allowed operations:
"action": [
"name/apm:Describe*"
]

Specifying a resource

The resource element describes one or multiple operation objects, such as APM resources. All the resources can be described in the following 6-segment format.
qcs:project_id:service_type:region:account:resource
The parameters are as described below:
Parameter
Description
Required
qcs
Abbreviation for "qcloud service", which indicates a Tencent Cloud service
Yes
project_id
Project information, which is only used to enable compatibility with legacy CAM logic and generally can be left empty
No
service_type
Product name abbreviation, which is apm here
Yes
region
Region information
Yes
account
Root account information of the resource owner, which is the root account ID in the format of uin/${OwnerUin}, such as uin/100000000001
Yes
resource
Resource details prefixed with instance
Yes
Below is a sample six-segment description of an APM resource:
"resource":["qcs::apm:ap-guangzhou:uin/1250000000:apm/apm-btzsrI123"]

Samples

Grant the read and write permissions of specified resources based on resource ID. The root account ID is 1250000000:
Sample: Granting the sub-user the permission to modify the business system (ID: apm-btzsrI123)
{
"version": "2.0",
"statement": [
{
"effect": "allow",
"action": [
"apm:ModifyApmInstance"
],
"resource": [
"qcs::apm:ap-guangzhou:uin/1250000000:apm-instance/apm-btzsrI123"
]
}
]
}
