Get user
Retrieves information about a user in the enterprise.
The application and the authenticated user need to have the permission to look up users in the entire enterprise.
This endpoint also returns a limited set of information for external users who are collaborated on content owned by the enterprise for authenticated users with the right scopes. In this case, disallowed fields will return null instead.
Request
Path Parameters
12345The ID of the user.
Query Parameters
id,type,nameA comma-separated list of attributes to include in the response. This can be used to request fields that are not normally returned in a standard response.
Be aware that specifying this parameter will have the effect that none of the standard fields are returned in the response unless explicitly specified, instead only fields for the mini representation are returned, additional to the fields requested.
Response
An unexpected client error.
