03/09/2021, 7:47 PMIn general in Pulumi, getPolicyDocument isn't needed. You can assign a simple JSON object (technically of type aws.iam.PolicyDocument) to a Role as its policy (or to anything that has a policy). Would that make testing easier?

03/09/2021, 7:52 PMAlright. Yes. That makes sense. I haven’t thought about that. I’ll give that a try.
I wasn’t aware we could just assign a JSON. For some reason I thought it only accepted json string 🤦♂️
Thank you @little-cartoon-10569!

03/09/2021, 7:53 PMIt's a carryover from the Terraform code where you can't write JSON.

03/09/2021, 7:53 PMOh yes. Off course. Good point.

03/09/2021, 7:53 PMWell, that will certainly simplify testing!
