deleteUser

Deletes the specified IAM user. Unlike the Amazon Web Services Management Console, when you delete a user programmatically, you must delete the items attached to the user manually, or the deletion fails. For more information, see Deleting an IAM user. Before attempting to delete a user, remove the following items:

• Password (DeleteLoginProfile)

• Access keys (DeleteAccessKey)

• Signing certificate (DeleteSigningCertificate)

• SSH public key (DeleteSSHPublicKey)

• Git credentials (DeleteServiceSpecificCredential)

• Multi-factor authentication (MFA) device (DeactivateMFADevice, DeleteVirtualMFADevice)

• Inline policies (DeleteUserPolicy)

• Attached managed policies (DetachUserPolicy)

• Group memberships (RemoveUserFromGroup)

Samples

// The following command removes the IAM user named Bob from the current account.
iamClient.deleteUser {
    userName = "Bob"
}
