## Syntax {#syntax}

The [`mc admin user sts info`](#command-mc.admin.user.sts.info) command retrieves information on the specified STS credential, such as the parent [MinIO user](/administration/identity-access-management/minio-identity-management/#minio-internal-idp) who generated the credentials, associated policies, and expiration.

<abbr title="Security Token Service">STS</abbr> credentials provide temporary access to the MinIO deployment.

**EXAMPLE**

The following command retrieves information on the STS credentials with specified access key:

```shell
mc admin user sts info myminio/ "J123C4ZXEQN8RK6ND35I"
```

The command has the following syntax:

```shell
mc [GLOBALFLAGS] admin user sts info          \
                                [--policy]    \
                                ALIAS         \
                                STSACCESSKEY
