# Reviewing Details and Editing an Existing Role

## Reviewing Details

On the Roles panel, click on a role to review and/or edit. The Role panel is displayed. For example:

This panel shows that you can:

- Assign role policies
- Assume role policy document

## Attaching a Policy to a Role

The Role panel includes an area where a policy (or policies) may be attached to the role. (Refer to [Policies](/v1/docs/policies-1) for a description of each policy.)

If no policies are currently attached, the area appears as:

In either case, you can attach a policy to the role in two ways:

- Select one of the predefined policies listed on the left of the panel. Simply click on **+** to the right of the policy name.

- Click in the **Attach Policy To Role** area at the top of the panel. Select a policy from the drop-down. (If the list of groups is long, you can begin to type characters in the policy name.)
