|-y|[default] Outputs a YAML segment.|
|-n|[default false] Name the resource. If specified, the RoleName property is included in the output.)|
*Note that you may specify j and y to output both formats if you wish.
- Auto Name - If you specify the
-nflag the RoleName will be included in the resource output. By default we allow CloudFormation to name the role for you. If you are deploying a CloudFormation template to AWS and you specify a named role you will have to use the CAPABILITY_NAMED_IAM in order to create the stack. Otherwise you will just need the CAPABILITY_IAM.
