How to rename an AWS customer IAM policy

0 votes

I have created a custom IAM policy, now I'm trying to rename it but I cannot find an option for it. The policy was not attached to anything yet. Is it possible to rename it or should I create a new policy with the correct name and delete the old one

No you cannot rename a policy

The only option you got is

  1. Create new policy

  2. Copy the old policy

  3. Delete the old policy

Hope this helps.
