Constructor Detail

Resource

public Resource(java.lang.String resource)

Constructs a new AWS access control policy resource. Resources are typically specified as Amazon Resource Names (ARNs).

You specify the resource using the following Amazon Resource Name (ARN) format: arn:aws:<vendor>:<region>:<namespace>:<relative-id>

• vendor identifies the AWS product (e.g., sns)
• region is the AWS Region the resource resides in (e.g., us-east-1), if any
• namespace is the AWS account ID with no hyphens (e.g., 123456789012)
• relative-id is the service specific portion that identifies the specific resource

For example, an Amazon SQS queue might be addressed with the following ARN: arn:aws:sqs:us-east-1:987654321000:MyQueue

Some resources may not use every field in an ARN. For example, resources in Amazon S3 are global, so they omit the region field: arn:aws:s3:::bucket/*

Parameters:

resource - The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) uniquely identifying the desired AWS resource.
