Retrieve Users with Get Users by Email Endpoint

The GET /api/v2/users-by-email endpoint allows you to search for users using their email addresses. The search looks for an exact match to the provided email address and is case-sensitive.

This endpoint is immediately consistent, and as such, we recommend that you use this endpoint for:

  • User searches run during the authentication process.

  • User searches run as part of the account linking process.

The request must include a Management API access token.

Request example

Required Scopes: read:users


curl --request GET \
  --url 'https://{yourDomain}/api/v2/users-by-email?email=%7BuserEmailAddress%7D' \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer {yourMgmtApiAccessToken}'
