GET /api/v1/users
Users of the firm (people and service accounts).
- Scope
users:read - operationId
adminUsers
The token needs the scope users:read, and the person or service account behind it needs the matching privileges and account permissions, exactly as on the screens. See Scopes.
Paginated. Cursor pagination: limit (1 to 200, default 50); pass next_cursor as cursor until has_more is false. fields= returns only the named fields.

Status codes and errors

| 401 | No token, or it is invalid or expired | invalid_token |
| 403 | The token lacks the scope, or the person or service account behind it lacks the privilege or account permission | insufficient_scope forbidden ip_not_allowed |
| 429 | Rate limited: wait for Retry-After seconds | rate_limited |
