Description of changes:
It appears (although I'm partly guessing and going off aws/aws-cdk#12985 (comment), and an error I got when the action deploy role didn't have s3 permissions) that the CloudFormation action generates a signed URL to the template, and passes that signed URL to CloudFormation.
This means the CloudFormation service role does not need permission to access the artifact bucket, because the signed URL is publicly accessible.
Also it means the action
RoleArn
(if configured), does need access to the artifact bucket, to generate the signed URL.Would be great to get confirmation that this is how it works and the docs updated to make this clear.
