GetRoleTemplateVersion
Retrieves information about a version of the specified role template. Role templates define a reusable configuration—including role name and path patterns, trust policy, inline and managed policies, permissions boundary, tags, and maximum session duration—that you use to create IAM roles with AcquireRole.
If you do not specify a minor version, the service returns the template's default minor version.
