Response

Returns an array of all users. See the User model for more information.

The following fields are returned for a newly created class.

Field Type Description
id String User's ID.
login String User's login. If the field isn't specified, a login is created based on a user's email.
permissions Array<String> An array of permissions available to the user. See an article about permissions for details.
uiSettings.muteSystemSounds Boolean If set to true, system sounds (for example, one that appears after the server is updated) are be disabled.
objectPermissions.exclude Array<String> An array of objects' IDs to which the user has the exclude permission. See an article about permissions for details.
objectPermissions.include Array<String> An array of objects' IDs to which the user has the include permission. See an article about permissions for details.
contacts Array<String> An array of user's contacts (email, phone number, etc).
eventFilter Array<EventFilter> An array of event filters configured for the user.
status Integer User's status.

The rest of users' public fields are returned if they've been assigned a value. For example, if you add a user to a group, a list of user's groups will be included in the response.

However, even if you set the changed field to the default value (for example, delete a user from all groups or remove the email), it would still be included in the response.
