You can specify the following actions in the
Action
element of an IAM policy statement. Use policies to grant permissions to perform
an operation in AWS. 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. However,
in some cases, a single action controls access to more than one operation. Alternatively,
some operations require several different actions.
The
Resource Types
column indicates whether each action supports resource-level permissions. If
there is no value for this column, you must specify all resources ("*") in the
Resource
element of your policy statement. If the column includes a resource type, then
you can specify an ARN of that type in a statement with that action. Required
resources are indicated in the table with an asterisk (*). If you specify a resource-level
permission ARN in a statement using this action, then it must be of this type.
Some actions support multiple resource types. If the resource type is optional (not
indicated as required), then you can choose to use one but not the other.
For details about the columns in the following table, see The Actions Table .

AWS Lake Formation does not support specifying a resource ARN in the
Resource
element of an IAM policy statement. To allow access to AWS Lake Formation, specify
“Resource”: “*”
in your policy.
Lake Formation has no service-specific context keys that can be used in the
Condition
element of policy statements. For the list of the global context keys that are
available to all services, see
