createPolicy

Creates a Cedar policy and saves it in the specified policy store. You can create either a static policy or a policy linked to a policy template.

• To create a static policy, provide the Cedar policy text in the StaticPolicy section of the PolicyDefinition.

• To create a policy that is dynamically linked to a policy template, specify the policy template ID and the principal and resource to associate with this policy in the templateLinked section of the PolicyDefinition. If the policy template is ever updated, any policies linked to the policy template automatically use the updated template.

Creating a policy causes it to be validated against the schema in the policy store. If the policy doesn't pass validation, the operation fails and the policy isn't stored.

Verified Permissions is eventually consistent. It can take a few seconds for a new or changed element to be propagate through the service and be visible in the results of other Verified Permissions operations.
