Get started with IAM
Use these topics to get started with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). You'll learn how to create roles, users, and policies using the AWS Management Console.
AWS Identity and Access Management is a feature of your AWS account offered at no additional charge. You will be
charged only for use of other AWS products by your IAM users. For information about the pricing
of other AWS products, see the Amazon Web Services pricing
page
Note
This set of documentation deals primarily with the IAM service. To learn about getting
started with AWS and using multiple services to solve a problem such as building and
launching your first project, see the Getting
Started Resource Center
