The command "aws iam list-access-keys" is used to list all access keys associated with an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user.
When you create an access key for an IAM user, it consists of two parts, an access key ID and a secret access key. These access keys are used to authenticate and authorize API requests made to AWS services.
The "aws iam list-access-keys" command fetches information about all the access keys associated with the specified IAM user. It provides details such as access key ID, IAM user name, and status (either Active or Inactive) for each access key.
This command can be helpful for managing access keys for IAM users, particularly when you want to review or monitor the existing access keys or identify inactive keys that can be removed for security reasons.
