Deren helps you grant an IAM user
access to your billing information
I want to grant an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user or group the permissions needed to access my account's billing information—how do I do that?
You can allow an IAM user to view your billing information by completing the following steps:
- Activate access to billing information for IAM users by following the instructions at Activating Access to the Billing and Cost Management Console.
Note: Until this step is completed, only the root user of an account can access the Billing and Cost Management console. - Update the IAM policy for the user or group to allow access to billing information. For example policies, see Billing and Cost Management Policy Examples. If you've created a new policy, attach the policy to the user or group. For more information, see Managing IAM Policies.
Note: The AWS Policy Generator can help you generate a policy that fits your use case, but be sure that you also understand the fundamentals of IAM. For more detailed information on billing permissions, see Billing Permissions Descriptions. For a general explanation of how IAM works, see What Is IAM?
