    46  ## Argument Reference
    47  
    48  The following arguments are supported:
    49  
    50  * `name` - (Required) The user's name. The name must consist of upper and lowercase alphanumeric characters with no spaces. You can also include any of the following characters: `=,.@-_.`. User names are not distinguished by case. For example, you cannot create users named both "TESTUSER" and "testuser".
    51  * `path` - (Optional, default "/") Path in which to create the user.
    52  * `force_destroy` - (Optional, default false) When destroying this user, destroy even if it
    53    has non-Terraform-managed IAM access keys, login profile or MFA devices. Without `force_destroy`
    54    a user with non-Terraform-managed access keys and login profile will fail to be destroyed.
