Describe the feature

Now appconfig-alpha has no grant method. If grantReadConfig() is implemented, it will be useful.

Use Case

Using AppConfig from application codes.

Proposed Solution

environment.grantReadConfig(lambdaFunction);

Other Information

Needed policy is following:

new iam.PolicyStatement({
  actions: [
    "appconfig:GetLatestConfiguration",
    "appconfig:StartConfigurationSession",
  ],
  resources: [`${appConfigEnvironment.environmentArn}/*`],
})
