CLI command 'aws iam list-mfa-devices' does not return MFA devices belonging to the account root user

1

AWS CLI command aws iam list-mfa-devices does not appear to return MFA devices belonging to the account root user.

aws iam list-mfa-devices --user-name root
An error occurred (NoSuchEntity) when calling the ListMFADevices operation: The user with name root cannot be found.

However, CLI command aws iam list-virtual-mfa-devices does return virtual MFA devices belonging to the account root user.

Is this by design?

Thanks!

Yes, it is by design. Note that root is not an IAM user, which is why it cannot find the user. aws iam list-users does not list root in the results.

  • Got it, thanks. Is there any way to see if a hardware MFA device is configured for the root account via the CLI?

  • Not to the best of my knowledge, unfortunately. The root user is configured in the console.
