ListUserPolicies
Lists the names of the inline policies embedded in the specified IAM user.
An IAM user can also have managed policies attached to it. To list the managed policies that are attached to a user, use ListAttachedUserPolicies. For more information about policies, see Managed policies and inline policies in the IAM User Guide.
You can paginate the results using the MaxItems and Marker
parameters. If there are no inline policies embedded with the specified user, the
operation returns an empty list.
Request Parameters

IsTruncatedresponse element istrue.If you do not include this parameter, the number of items defaults to 100. Note that IAM might return fewer results, even when there are more results available. In that case, the
