# metalcloud-cli user

Manage user accounts and their properties

## Synopsis

Comprehensive user management commands for creating, modifying, and managing user accounts.
These commands allow you to perform various operations on user accounts including:
- Creating individual or bulk users
- Managing user permissions and limits
- Handling SSH keys and authentication
- User lifecycle operations (archive/unarchive, suspend/unsuspend)
- Account management and configuration updates

All commands require appropriate permissions and most modification commands require
the user ID as a parameter. Use 'metalcloud-cli user list' to find user IDs.
