# Amazon RDS: Allows full RDS database access within a specific Region
<a name="reference_policies_examples_rds_region"></a>

This example shows how you might create an identity-based policy that allows full RDS database access within a specific Region. This policy grants the permissions necessary to complete this action programmatically from the AWS API or AWS CLI. To use this policy, replace the *italicized placeholder text* in the example policy with your own information. Then, follow the directions in [create a policy](access_policies_create.md) or [edit a policy](access_policies_manage-edit.md).
