 ** Path **   
The path to the user. For more information about paths, see [IAM identifiers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/Using_Identifiers.html) in the *IAM User Guide*.  
The ARN of the policy used to set the permissions boundary for the user.  
Type: String  
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 512.  
Pattern: `(\u002F)|(\u002F[\u0021-\u007E]+\u002F)`

 ** UserId **   
The stable and unique string identifying the user. For more information about IDs, see [IAM identifiers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/Using_Identifiers.html) in the *IAM User Guide*.

 ** PasswordLastUsed **   
The date and time, in [ISO 8601 date-time format](http://www.iso.org/iso/iso8601), when the user's password was last used to sign in to an AWS website. For a list of AWS websites that capture a user's last sign-in time, see the [Credential reports](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/credential-reports.html) topic in the *IAM User Guide*. If a password is used more than once in a five-minute span, only the first use is returned in this field. If the field is null (no value), then it indicates that they never signed in with a password. This can be because:  
+ The user never had a password.
+ A password exists but has not been used since IAM started tracking this information on October 20, 2014.
A null value does not mean that the user *never* had a password. Also, if the user does not currently have a password but had one in the past, then this field contains the date and time the most recent password was used.  
This value is returned only in the [GetUser](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/APIReference/API_GetUser.html) and [ListUsers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/APIReference/API_ListUsers.html) operations.

 ** Tags.member.N **
