- “IAM Access Analyzer” for a Cloudformation Stack’s Service Role?
-
Can you build an IAM list of Actions based on running infrastructure and/or cloud formation template?
From a template, this is the closest I've gotten: https://github.com/iann0036/aws-leastprivilege , and also check out iamlive (thanks /u/rowanu!) if you can insert the recorder between the application and the AWS endpoints.
-
IAM Least Privilege for IAM for SAM/CloudFormation?
Check out https://github.com/iann0036/aws-leastprivilege, though note that it doesn't currently support SAM, so you might want to create a change set and grab the transformed template to use.
-
Permissions - is there an easy way?
I've personally attempted to fix this before with https://github.com/iann0036/aws-leastprivilege, which uses mappings with permissions (based on some incremental permissions testing), but also defaults down to examining the permission schemes publicly available in some (but not all) resource types. More info in the README.

How to get the exact IAM services/roles needed to run a command
I like using https://github.com/flosell/trailscraper for this
- flosell/trailscraper - a command-line tool to get valuable information out of AWS CloudTrail
- TrailScraper: A command-line tool to get valuable information out of AWS CloudTrail and a general purpose toolbox for working with IAM policies
- Trailscraper can scrape your Cloudtrail logs and generate IAM Policies from the resources and verbs used by your users or roles
-
Is there a tool that tells you which IAM actions to allow if you give it an API operation?
I’ve used this project in the past to pull out policy information https://github.com/flosell/trailscraper (it’s a CLI, FYI)
What are some alternatives?
When comparing aws-leastprivilege and trailscraper you can also consider the following projects:
iamlive - Generate an IAM policy from AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud (GCP) calls using client-side monitoring (CSM) or embedded proxy
aws-secure-environment-accelerator - The AWS Secure Environment Accelerator is a tool designed to help deploy and operate secure multi-account, multi-region AWS environments on an ongoing basis. The power of the solution is the configuration file which enables the completely automated deployment of customizable architectures within AWS without changing a single line of code.
