What is AWS Service Authorization Reference?

AWS Service Authorization Reference is a piece of documentation available here where AWS gives exhaustive reference data on all IAM Actions, Resources and Condition Keys, grouping information that was otherwise scattered across multiple service documentations.

In 2024, AWS added programmatic support to access this data.

Since March 13, 2025, Service Reference Information includes Resources and Condition Keys.
