Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

aws_access_key

string

AWS access key. If not set then the value of the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY environment variable is used.

If profile is set this parameter is ignored.

Passing the aws_access_key and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01.


aliases: ec2_access_key, access_key

aws_ca_bundle

path

The location of a CA Bundle to use when validating SSL certificates.

Only used for boto3 based modules.

Note: The CA Bundle is read 'module' side and may need to be explicitly copied from the controller if not run locally.

aws_config

dictionary

A dictionary to modify the botocore configuration.

Only the 'user_agent' key is used for boto modules. See http://boto.cloudhackers.com/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html#boto for more boto configuration.

aws_secret_key

string

AWS secret key. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_KEY, or EC2_SECRET_KEY environment variable is used.

If profile is set this parameter is ignored.

Passing the aws_secret_key and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01.


aliases: ec2_secret_key, secret_key

debug_botocore_endpoint_logs

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Use a botocore.endpoint logger to parse the unique (rather than total) "resource:action" API calls made during a task, outputing the set to the resource_actions key in the task results. Use the aws_resource_action callback to output to total list made during a playbook. The ANSIBLE_DEBUG_BOTOCORE_LOGS environment variable may also be used.

ec2_url

string

Url to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used.


aliases: aws_endpoint_url, endpoint_url

fail_on_delete

boolean

  • no
  • yes

The fail_on_delete option does nothing and will be removed after 2022-06-01

make_default

boolean

  • no
  • yes

Make this revision the default revision.

only_version

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Remove all other non default revisions, if this is used with make_default it will result in all other versions of this policy being deleted.

policy

json

A properly json formatted policy

policy_description

string

Default:

""

A helpful description of this policy, this value is immutable and only set when creating a new policy.

policy_name

string / required

The name of the managed policy.

profile

string

Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0.

Using profile will override aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token and support for passing them at the same time as profile has been deprecated.

aws_access_key, aws_secret_key and security_token will be made mutually exclusive with profile after 2022-06-01.


aliases: aws_profile

region

string

The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region


aliases: aws_region, ec2_region

security_token

string

AWS STS security token. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN environment variable is used.

If profile is set this parameter is ignored.

Passing the security_token and profile options at the same time has been deprecated and the options will be made mutually exclusive after 2022-06-01.


aliases: aws_security_token, access_token

state

string

  • present

  • absent

Should this managed policy be present or absent. Set to absent to detach all entities from this policy and remove it if found.

validate_certs

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0.



Notes

Note

  • If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence AWS_URL or EC2_URL, AWS_PROFILE or AWS_DEFAULT_PROFILE, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or AWS_SECRET_KEY or EC2_SECRET_KEY, AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN, AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION, AWS_CA_BUNDLE
  • Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
  • AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file
