**To create an AWS IoT policy**

The following ``create-policy`` example creates an AWS IoT policy named TemperatureSensorPolicy. The ``policy.json`` file contains statements that allow AWS IoT policy actions. ::

    aws iot create-policy \
        --policy-name TemperatureSensorPolicy \
        --policy-document file://policy.json

Contents of ``policy.json``::

    {
        "Version": "2012-10-17",
        "Statement": [
            {
                "Effect": "Allow",
                "Action": [
                    "iot:Publish",
                    "iot:Receive"
                ],
                "Resource": [
                    "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:topic/topic_1",
                    "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:topic/topic_2"
                ]
            },
            {
                "Effect": "Allow",
                "Action": [
                    "iot:Subscribe"
                ],
                "Resource": [
                    "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:topicfilter/topic_1",
                    "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:topicfilter/topic_2"
                ]
            },
            {
                "Effect": "Allow",
                "Action": [
                    "iot:Connect"
                ],
                "Resource": [
                    "arn:aws:iot:us-west-2:123456789012:client/basicPubSub"
                ]
            }
        ]
    }

Output::
