delete_access_key

Operation

delete_access_key async

delete_access_key(input: DeleteAccessKeyInput, plugins: list[Plugin] | None = None) -> DeleteAccessKeyOutput

Deletes the access key pair associated with the specified IAM user.

If you do not specify a user name, IAM determines the user name implicitly based on the Amazon Web Services access key ID signing the request. This operation works for access keys under the Amazon Web Services account. Consequently, you can use this operation to manage Amazon Web Services account root user credentials even if the Amazon Web Services account has no associated users.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
input DeleteAccessKeyInput

An instance of DeleteAccessKeyInput.

required
plugins list[Plugin] | None

A list of callables that modify the configuration dynamically. Changes made by these plugins only apply for the duration of the operation execution and will not affect any other operation invocations.

None

Returns:
