session policy - Tucix - 04-03-2023

Hello,

What is a session policy in the context of the IAM ?
 I know what Resource-based policy and Identity-based policy are, but not session policy.

Regards,

Here is what AWS says about session policy:

Session policies are advanced policies that you pass as a parameter when you programmatically create a temporary session for a role or user. Session policies are useful for locking down users so that they have access only to portions of your bucket where object prefixes contain their username.
