AWS appsync documentation change

Service: appsync · 2025-08-28 · Documentation low

File: appsync/latest/devguide/security_iam_id-based-policy-examples.md

Summary

Removed JSON examples of IAM policies with conditional access controls

Security assessment

Policy example removal doesn't address specific security flaws. Appears to be documentation reorganization rather than security update.
