AWS systems-manager: Update condition key cross-reference wording

Service: systems-manager · 2026-09-27 · Documentation low

File: systems-manager/latest/userguide/security_iam_service-with-iam.md

Summary

Rewrites a sentence to reference only the ssm:Policies and ssm:Overwrite condition keys and to point to guidance on restricting access to individual parameters and paths, dropping the ssm:Recursive condition key mention.

Security assessment

This is a minor editorial cross-reference update to an IAM documentation page; it does not introduce or fix any specific security control, so it is non-security in impact.

Evidence

For information about using the `ssm:Policies` and `ssm:Overwrite` condition keys, and for guidance on restricting access to individual parameters and parameter paths, see [Preventing access to Parameter Store API operations](./parameter-store-policy-conditions.html).
