To declare this entity in your AWS CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

ResourcePolicy

Creates or updates a resource-based policy document that contains the permissions for DynamoDB resources, such as a table's streams. Resource-based policies let you define access permissions by specifying who has access to each resource, and the actions they are allowed to perform on each resource.

In a CloudFormation template, you can provide the policy in JSON or YAML format because CloudFormation converts YAML to JSON before submitting it to DynamoDB. For more information about resource-based policies, see Using resource-based policies for DynamoDB and Resource-based policy examples.

• KEYS_ONLY - Only the key attributes of the modified item are written to the stream.

• NEW_AND_OLD_IMAGES - Both the new and the old item images of the item are written to the stream.
