Provision Users

To provision an IAM user, the only required property is the username, which is unique within the AWS account.

pulumi up -y

pulumi destroy -y

// iam/identities/users/create_user/ts/index.ts

import * as aws from "@pulumi/aws";

// Create IAM user with long-lived access credentials
const user = new aws.iam.User("techsquawks-user", {
    name: "techsquawks-user"
});

// Export user information
export const userArn = user.arn;
export const userName = user.name;

Stack Outputs

Outputs:
    userArn : "arn:aws:iam::012345678910:user/techsquawks-user"
    userName: "techsquawks-user"

To further verify that the user was provisioned correctly, the identity can be fetched via the get-user IAM API call.
