Guide to bootstrapping using CloudFormation Stacksets missing IAM permission boundary examples

[reidca]

Describe the issue

The guide to bootstrapping an account using CloudFormation stack sets published on the AWS blog makes specific mention of adding an IAM permission boundary but this is not included in the post.

In this post, you’ll perform the following steps to deploy the AWS CDK bootstrap template:

Extract the AWS CDK bootstrap CloudFormation template from the AWS CDK CLI
Customize the bootstrap template by adding an IAM permission boundary

The post has no further reference to this.

Hi @reidca , thanks for reporting this.
For up-to-date documentation and reference, we recommend checking the official CDK Documentation . However there is also a blogpost for defining IAM boundaries as well. For now, I am marking this as P2.
