AWS IAM easily allows to add users to groups.

How can I add a group to another group, so that all permissions are 'nested', or 'inherited'?

I want to avoid having to add users multiple times, or attaching permission multiple times.

CodePudding user response：

It is not possible to have nested groups, as mentioned in the AWS IAM user groups Documentation:

• A user group can contain many users, and a user can belong to multiple user groups.

• User groups can't be nested; they can contain only users, not other user groups.

However, you can attach an IAM Policy (service permission) across multiple groups and/or users giving permissions in a nested way.
