delete

IAM.User.delete()

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 )
