Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) uniquely identify AWS resources. We require an ARN when you need to specify a resource unambiguously across all of AWS, such as in IAM policies, Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) tags, and API calls.<\/p>\n
The following are the general formats for ARNs. The specific formats depend on the resource. To use an ARN, replace the italicized text with the resource-specific information. Be aware that the ARNs for some resources omit the Region, the account ID, or both the Region and the account ID.<\/p>\n
arn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-id\narn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-type\/resource-id\narn:partition:service:region:account-id:resource-type:resource-id<\/code><\/pre>\n\n- partition
\nThe partition in which the resource is located. A partition is a group of AWS Regions. Each AWS account is scoped to one partition.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThe following are the supported partitions:<\/p>\n
aws - AWS Regions<\/p>\n
aws-cn - China Regions<\/p>\n
aws-us-gov - AWS GovCloud (US) Regions<\/p>\n
\n- service<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The service namespace that identifies the AWS product.<\/p>\n
\n- region<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The Region code. For example, us-east-2 for US East (Ohio). For the list of Region codes, see Regional endpoints in the AWS General Reference.<\/p>\n
\n- \n
account-id
\nThe ID of the AWS account that owns the resource, without the hyphens. For example, 123456789012.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
resource-type
\nThe resource type. For example, vpc for a virtual private cloud (VPC).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
resource-id<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
The resource identifier. This is the name of the resource, the ID of the resource, or a resource path. Some resource identifiers include a parent resource (sub-resource-type\/parent-resource\/sub-resource) or a qualifier such as a version (resource-type:resource-name:qualifier).<\/p>\n
Examples<\/h2>\n\n- \n
IAM user
\narn:aws:iam::123456789012:user\/johndoe<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
SNS topic
\narn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:example-sns-topic-name<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \n
