Note:
To grant a user only the permissions of specific APIs, at least the permissions of the following APIs must be granted, or else the console fails to display correctly.
The sample code of action is as follows:
"action": [
"postgres:DescribeProductConfig",
"postgres:InquiryPriceCreateDBInstances",
"postgres:DescribeRegions",
"postgres:DescribeZones"
]
To grant a user the permissions to monitor and view instances, the API permissions related to monitoring needs to be granted. The sample code of action is as follows:
{"effect": "allow",
"action": [
"monitor:Get*",
"monitor:Describe*"
],
"resource": "*"

{
"action": "postgres:*",
"resource": "qcs::postgres:ap-shanghai:103xxx1481:DBInstanceId/postgres-0xxxx8e",
"effect": "allow"

{
"action": "postgres:*",
"resource": [
"qcs::postgres::16xxx472:DBInstanceId/postgres-c8xxxa4",
