VM::EC...Profile(3pm)

💖 VM::EC2::Instance::IamProfile 💖

okay bestie, listen up — this is the VM::EC2::Instance::IamProfile page from the Perl docs (user-contributed ones, the good stuff), and it's literally an object that describes an Amazon EC2 Identity Access Management profile. yes, that's the whole vibe. it's small, it's cute, it does exactly one thing and it does it slay 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

VM::EC2::Instance::IamProfile — an object describing an Amazon EC2 Identity Access Management profile 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole thing in action, no cap:

use VM::EC2;

$ec2     = VM::EC2->new(...);
my $instance = $ec2->describe_instances('i-123456');
my $profile  = $instance->iamInstanceProfile;
print $profile->arn,"\n";
print $profile->id,"\n";

like. you make your $ec2, you grab an instance with describe_instances('i-123456'), you pull the iamInstanceProfile off it, and then you just print the arn and the id. iconic behaviour honestly 🦋

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so this object? it represents an Amazon IAM profile that's associated with an instance. that's it, that's the whole plot. it's giving "small but essential" energy 👑

---

✨ METHODS ✨

these object methods are supported, and yes there are only two, we keep it minimal around here:

• arn — the Amazon resource name (ARN) of the IAM Instance Profile (IIP) that's associated with the instance. yes, they call it an IIP. we love an acronym 🫶
• id — the ID of the IIP associated with the instance. short, sweet, to the point ⭐

---

💜 STRING OVERLOADING 💜

the way that this object just knows what to do — when you use it in a string context, it will interpolate the arn. so you can yeet it straight into a string and it'll behave. main character energy fr fr 💖
