First, create the `aws.iam.Role` resource, which requires the assume role policy.

For your custom policies, create `aws.iam.Policy` and `aws.iam.RolePolicyAttachment` resources.

For AWS-managed policies, grab the ARN (the console is one place to get them), and just create `aws.iam.RolePolicyAttachment` resources and just set the policy ARN to the AWS-managed policy.

I have created the custom policies already... in the actual code of the aws.iam.Role however, do I reference the custom and aws managed policies in order to attach them? or is that a separate process?

Attach your policies using `aws.iam.RolePolicyAttachment`.

One attachment per (role, policy ARN) combo. You can do these in a loop (for the AWS policies at least).

great thanks... I was able to create the role and attach all relevant policies.... was a little stuck when it comes to assigning that role to an ec2 instance though....
