Delete Login Profile

iam_delete_login_profile R Documentation

Deletes the password for the specified IAM user, For more information, see Managing passwords for IAM users

Description

Deletes the password for the specified IAM user, For more information, see Managing passwords for IAM users.

You can use the CLI, the Amazon Web Services API, or the Users page in the IAM console to delete a password for any IAM user. You can use change_password to update, but not delete, your own password in the My Security Credentials page in the Amazon Web Services Management Console.

Deleting a user's password does not prevent a user from accessing Amazon Web Services through the command line interface or the API. To prevent all user access, you must also either make any access keys inactive or delete them. For more information about making keys inactive or deleting them, see update_access_key and delete_access_key.
