list_users

Operation

list_users async

list_users(input: ListUsersInput, plugins: list[Plugin] | None = None) -> ListUsersOutput

Lists the IAM users that have the specified path prefix. If no path prefix is specified, the operation returns all users in the Amazon Web Services account. If there are none, the operation returns an empty list.

Note

IAM resource-listing operations return a subset of the available attributes for the resource. This operation does not return the following attributes, even though they are an attribute of the returned object:

  • PermissionsBoundary

  • Tags

To view all of the information for a user, see GetUser.

You can paginate the results using the MaxItems and Marker parameters.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
input ListUsersInput

An instance of ListUsersInput.

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:

Type Description
ListUsersOutput

An instance of ListUsersOutput.

Input

ListUsersInput dataclass

Bases: _SerdeShape

Dataclass for ListUsersInput structure.

Attributes

marker class-attribute instance-attribute
marker: str | None = ...

Use this parameter only when paginating results and only after you receive a response indicating that the results are truncated. Set it to the value of the Marker element in the response that you received to indicate where the next call should start.

max_items class-attribute instance-attribute
max_items: int | None = ...

Use this only when paginating results to indicate the maximum number of items you want in the response. If additional items exist beyond the maximum you specify, the IsTruncated response element is true.

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 IsTruncated response element returns true, and Marker contains a value to include in the subsequent call that tells the service where to continue from.

path_prefix class-attribute instance-attribute
path_prefix: str | None = ...

The path prefix for filtering the results. For example: /division_abc/subdivision_xyz/, which would get all user names whose path starts with /division_abc/subdivision_xyz/.

This parameter is optional. If it is not included, it defaults to a slash (/), listing all user names. This parameter allows (through its regex pattern) a string of characters consisting of either a forward slash (/) by itself or a string that must begin and end with forward slashes. In addition, it can contain any ASCII character from the ! (!) through the DEL character (), including most punctuation characters, digits, and upper and lowercased letters.

Output

ListUsersOutput dataclass

Bases: _SerdeShape

Contains the response to a successful ListUsers request.

Attributes

is_truncated class-attribute instance-attribute
is_truncated: bool = ...

A flag that indicates whether there are more items to return. If your results were truncated, you can make a subsequent pagination request using the Marker request parameter to retrieve more items. Note that IAM might return fewer than the MaxItems number of results even when there are more results available. We recommend that you check IsTruncated after every call to ensure that you receive all your results.

marker class-attribute instance-attribute
marker: str | None = ...

When IsTruncated is true, this element is present and contains the value to use for the Marker parameter in a subsequent pagination request.

response_metadata class-attribute instance-attribute
response_metadata: ResponseMetadata = ...

Metadata about the response that produced this output. Use this to recover the request identifiers a service's support team needs in order to investigate a call. Members of the metadata are individually optional.

users instance-attribute
users: list[User]

A list of users.
