AWS workspaces-web documentation change

Service: workspaces-web · 2025-10-22 · Documentation low

File: workspaces-web/latest/adminguide/security_iam_service-with-iam-id-based-policies.md

Summary

Removed clarification that identity-based policies cannot specify principals (as they are attached to users/roles).

Security assessment

The edit removes an explanatory note about IAM policy structure but does not affect security guidance. The documentation still covers policy elements.
