List Users
Summary
List the users in the site. Only site administrators can use this operation to list other user accounts. If you are authenticated as a user who is not a site administrator, only your own user information will be returned.
You can only list users associated with your site. Attempting to list a user with a name taken by another site will result in a 404 NOT FOUND error.

Pagination
The ExaVault legacy API does not include cursor-based pagination. Instead, you can use the limit
and offset
request parameters to restrict the number of results returned, and make multiple requests to retrieve subsequent pages of results.
The limit
parameter is the maximum number of results that can be returned, starting from the beginning of the list or from the offset
parameter value, if that was provided. The value of limit
cannot be larger than 10,000.
The offset
parameter represents how many records to skip before returning up to limit
number of results.
Sorting
You can specify what order the results will be returned in by using the sort
parameter. Valid options are nickname
, username
, email
, homedir
, or modified
. All sorting is case-insensitive.
The sort order is ascending by default. To sort in descending order, prefix the sort
value with -
(a minus/hyphen character), for example: -modified
.
