Using List of IAM Policy Document Objects as AWS::Serverless::Function Policies

According to the documentation for AWS::Serverless::Function in the Serverless Application Model, it is possible to specify a list of IAM Policy Document Objects (PDO) for the Policies property of a Resource.

However, the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio is flagging a syntax error when I try to define an IAM PDO: enter image description here

Here is a full example of my Resources section:

"Resources": { "Example" : { "Type" : "AWS::Serverless::Function", "Properties": { "Handler": "Example::Example.Controllers.ExampleController::ExampleAction", "Runtime": "dotnetcore2.0", "CodeUri": "", "MemorySize": 256, "Timeout": 30, "Policies": [{ "Version": "2012-10-17", "Statement": { "Effect": "Allow", "Action": "*", "Resource": "*" } }], "Events": { "PutResource": { "Type": "Api", "Properties": { "Path": "/{id}", "Method": "GET" } } } } } }

Is there something I'm getting wrong, or is there an issue with either SAM or the AWS Toolkit syntax validation?

Solution

  • I just updated the VS CloudFormation schema. The problem should go away the next time you restart Visual Studio.
