type Username

string

param Username

[REQUIRED]

The user name for the account. For instances not using SAML for identity management, the user name can include up to 20 characters. If you are using SAML for identity management, the user name can include up to 64 characters from [a-zA-Z0-9_-.@]+.

type Password

string

param Password

The password for the user account. A password is required if you are using Amazon Connect for identity management. Otherwise, it is an error to include a password.

The information about the identity of the user.

FirstName (string) --

The first name. This is required if you are using Amazon Connect or SAML for identity management.
LastName (string) --

The last name. This is required if you are using Amazon Connect or SAML for identity management.
Email (string) --

The email address. If you are using SAML for identity management and include this parameter, an error is returned.
SecondaryEmail (string) --

type DirectoryUserId

param DirectoryUserId

The identifier of the user account in the directory used for identity management. If Amazon Connect cannot access the directory, you can specify this identifier to authenticate users. If you include the identifier, we assume that Amazon Connect cannot access the directory. Otherwise, the identity information is used to authenticate users from your directory.

This parameter is required if you are using an existing directory for identity management in Amazon Connect when Amazon Connect cannot access your directory to authenticate users. If you are using SAML for identity management and include this parameter, an error is returned.

UpdateUserIdentityInfo (updated)

Link ¶
Changes (request)

{'IdentityInfo': {'Mobile': 'string', 'SecondaryEmail': 'string'}}

Updates the identity information for the specified user.

Warning

We strongly recommend limiting who has the ability to invoke UpdateUserIdentityInfo . Someone with that ability can change the login credentials of other users by changing their email address. This poses a security risk to your organization. They can change the email address of a user to the attacker's email address, and then reset the password through email. For more information, see Best Practices for Security Profiles in the Amazon Connect Administrator Guide .
