Create user for setting ACL rule over topic

^{Originally posted by **pchatterjee-cfx** June 12, 2023}
Hi,
I am looking for a way to create an owner for a topic and subseqeuently add ACL rules for consuming messages. I do this from CLI as follows:

> $ kafka-configs.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --alter --add-config 'SCRAM-SHA-256=[iterations=8192,password=],SCRAM-SHA-512=[password=]' --entity-type users --entity-name
> $ kafka-acls.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --add --allow-principal User: --operation All --resource-pattern-type prefixed --topic

I am trying to do the same via code as follows:

> # Create topic owner
> topic_username = str(attributes.get('topic-username'))
> topic_password = str(attributes.get('topic-password'))
> #resource = ConfigResource('Users', topic_username)
> resource = ConfigResource(ConfigResource.Type.ANY, topic_username)
> describe_configs = admin.describe_configs([resource])
> describe_configs['SCRAM-SHA-256'] = f'[iterations=8192,password={topic_password}]'
> describe_configs['SCRAM-SHA-512'] = f'[password={topic_password}]'
> admin.alter_configs([resource])
> # Create ACL rule
> acl = AclBinding(ResourceType.TOPIC, topic_name,
> ResourcePatternType.MATCH, f'User:{topic_username}', None,
> AclOperation.ALL, AclPermissionType.ALLOW)
> admin.create_acls([acl])

Issue is that I dont find `USER` under ResourceType and am unable to add a user configuration. Is there any other way to add a user?
