<p>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 <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_users_manage.html#id_users_deleting_cli">Deleting an IAM user</a>. Before attempting to delete a user, remove the following items:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Password (<a>DeleteLoginProfile</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Access keys (<a>DeleteAccessKey</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Signing certificate (<a>DeleteSigningCertificate</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>SSH public key (<a>DeleteSSHPublicKey</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Git credentials (<a>DeleteServiceSpecificCredential</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Multi-factor authentication (MFA) device (<a>DeactivateMFADevice</a>, <a>DeleteVirtualMFADevice</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Inline policies (<a>DeleteUserPolicy</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Attached managed policies (<a>DetachUserPolicy</a>)</p> </li> <li> <p>Group memberships (<a>RemoveUserFromGroup</a>)</p> </li> </ul>
