Service: lake-formation · 2025-04-18 · Documentation low

File: lake-formation/latest/dg/granting-link-permissions.md

Updated workflow steps for granting resource link permissions, modified UI references, and removed 'Super' permission from documentation image

Security assessment

Procedural updates to console navigation and permission granting workflow without explicit security context. Removal of 'Super' permission in image suggests UI change but no vulnerability documentation
