aws-lambda: List which AWS services can invoke the function.
$ aws lambda get-policy --function-name ${name}
try on your machine
The command "aws lambda get-policy --function-name ${name}" is a command-line interface (CLI) command used to retrieve the resource-based policy for an AWS Lambda function.
Here is a breakdown of the command:
- "aws lambda" is the AWS CLI command for managing Lambda functions.
- "get-policy" is the specific command to retrieve the policy attached to a Lambda function.
- "--function-name" is an option specifying that you want to retrieve the policy for a specific Lambda function.
- "${name}" is a placeholder (in UNIX-like systems) or a reference to a variable (in Windows) which should be replaced with the actual name of the Lambda function you want to retrieve the policy for.
When you run this command, the AWS CLI will send a request to the AWS Lambda service to retrieve the resource-based policy associated with the provided Lambda function name. The policy describes the permissions and access control rules that define who can invoke the function and what AWS resources it can interact with.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
