I just tried this command and it worked after following the steps on this page. Are these the steps that you followed as well?

• The error happened because an authentication object was created but without a user object.

{

}

KeyError: 'user'
bash-5.0#

To summarize, there should be an error handler for this condition. This specific condition is not having a user at the time the cli attempts to get_mgmt_client() (according to the AuthConfigurationClient class the user could come from an auth object or from cli args).

def get_mgmt_client():
    """ Get Management Client """

    auth_client = AuthConfigurationClient()
    auth = auth_client.read_auth(constants.AUTHENTICATION_PROVIDERS['BIGIP'])

    management_kwargs = dict(
        port=auth['port'],
        user=auth['user'],
        password=auth['password']
    )
    return ManagementClient(auth['host'], **management_kwargs)

The problem statement should be expanded to including an error handler for cases where any value from the management_kwargs dict is missing.
