Amazon Budgets now supports resource and tag-based access controls

Amazon Budgets now supports resource and tag-based access controls for easy management and access. You can now define Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies to specify fine-grained permissions for Amazon Budgets resources based on their resource names and tags, improving governance and information security through these two granular access control features.

With resource-level access controls, you can configure IAM policies that reference budgets using Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) or wildcards, and specify the users, roles and actions that are permitted on the resources. Using tag-based permissions, you can define IAM policies that specify permissions for tagged budgets. For example, you can tag a budget based on a business unit and limit control over those resources to the members of that business unit.

Resource and tag-based access controls for Amazon Budgets is generally available in Amazon Web Services China (Beijing) Region, operated by Sinnet and Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) Region, operated by NWCD.  

You can get started with these new features using the Amazon Budgets console or programmatically via the public APIs at no additional cost. To learn more visit Amazon Budgets and Using Resource and Tag based access control for budgets.
