Which task can an IAM user perform without AWS account root user credentials?
A
Change to a different AWS Support plan
B
Close an AWS account
C
View the AWS Billing console
D
Activate access to the AWS Billing console
Explanation:
IAM users can view the AWS Billing console without requiring root user credentials. However, they cannot perform the following actions without root user access:
Change to a different AWS Support plan - This requires root user permissions
Close an AWS account - This can only be done by the root user
Activate access to the AWS Billing console - This requires root user permissions to grant IAM users billing access
IAM users can view billing information if they have been granted the necessary IAM permissions (such as aws-portal:ViewBilling), but they cannot enable or disable billing access for themselves or others - that requires root user credentials.
