Examples

View User Details

Use mc admin user info to view detailed user information for a user on a MinIO deployment:

mc admin user info ALIAS USERNAME

• Replace ALIAS <mc admin user info ALIAS> with the alias <mc alias> of the MinIO deployment.
• Replace USERNAME <mc admin user info USERNAME> with the username of the user to display information for.

For the MinIO internal IDentity Provider (IDP) <minio-internal-idp>, the output resembles the following:

AccessKey: miniouser
Status: enabled
PolicyName: 
MemberOf: []
Authentication: builtin (miniouser)

For a third-party <minio-external-identity-management> identity service such as LDAP, the output resembles the following:

AccessKey: uid=dillon,ou=people,ou=swengg,dc=min,dc=io
Status: 
PolicyName: consoleAdmin
MemberOf: []
Authentication: ldap/localhost:1389 (uid=dillon,ou=people,ou=swengg,dc=min,dc=io)

View Policies from Group Membership

Use mc admin user info with --json <mc.--json> to view the policies inherited from a user's group memberships <minio-groups>:

mc admin user info ALIAS USERNAME --json

• Replace ALIAS <mc admin user info ALIAS> with the alias <mc alias> of the MinIO deployment.
• Replace USERNAME <mc admin user info USERNAME> with the username of the user to display information for.

The memberOf property in the output contains a list of groups the user is a member of, with the policies attached to each group. The output resembles the following:

{
 "status": "success",
 "accessKey": "myuser",
 "userStatus": "enabled",
 "memberOf": [
  {
   "name": "testingGroup",
   "policies": [
    "testingGroupPolicy"
   ]
 "authentication": builtin (myuser)
  }
 ]
}
