Modify a User

Modifying a user is similar to a “move” operation. To modify a user, you need permission to remove the user from the current path or name, and put that user in the new path or name.For example, if a user changes from one team in a company to another, you can change the user’s path from /team_abc/ to /team_efg/ . You need permission to remove the user from /team_abc/ . You also need permission to put the user into /team_efg/ . This means you need permission to call UpdateUser on both arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/team_abc/* and *arn:aws:iam::123456789012:user/team_efg/** .
