Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property Path System.String

Gets and sets the property Path.

The path for the user name. For more information about paths, see IAM identifiers in the IAM User Guide.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/).

This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (\u0021) through the DEL character (\u007F), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

Public Property PermissionsBoundary System.String

Gets and sets the property PermissionsBoundary.

The ARN of the managed policy that is used to set the permissions boundary for the user.

A permissions boundary policy defines the maximum permissions that identity-based policies can grant to an entity, but does not grant permissions. Permissions boundaries do not define the maximum permissions that a resource-based policy can grant to an entity. To learn more, see Permissions boundaries for IAM entities in the IAM User Guide.

For more information about policy types, see Policy types in the IAM User Guide.

Public Property Tags System.Collections.Generic.List<Amazon.IdentityManagement.Model.Tag>

Gets and sets the property Tags.

A list of tags that you want to attach to the new user. Each tag consists of a key name and an associated value. For more information about tagging, see Tagging IAM resources in the IAM User Guide.

If any one of the tags is invalid or if you exceed the allowed maximum number of tags, then the entire request fails and the resource is not created.

Public Property UserName System.String

Gets and sets the property UserName.

The name of the user to create.

IAM user, group, role, and policy names must be unique within the account. Names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create resources named both "MyResource" and "myresource".

Examples

The following create-user command creates an IAM user named Bob in the current account.

To create an IAM user


var client = new AmazonIdentityManagementServiceClient();
var response = client.CreateUser(new CreateUserRequest 
{
    UserName = "Bob"
});

User user = response.User;
