[SOLVED] List all users of a project in Appwrite Cloud

[gloomy epoch]

Good day, please I need to get the list of users as done with the Node.js SDK in React. How do I do that?
Here is the Node.js SDK code for reference: https://appwrite.io/docs/server/users?sdk=nodejs-default#usersList

I need to do that in React, not Node.js

Hey @gloomy epoch

The Users API is a server-side integration that works in an "admin" scope. The Account API is a client side implementation that works in the selected/current user's scope. That being said, you cannot use the Accounts API to get a list of the project's users as user A will not be able to see which other users are in the project.

You can create a simple cloud function that returns a list of all the project's users. You can execute this function based on an event, or by using the createExecution endpoint in the Functions API.

Functions API (createExecution): https://appwrite.io/docs/client/functions?sdk=web-default#functionsCreateExecution
Guide to building and using functions: https://appwrite.io/docs/functions

If you have any issues while implementing this, feel free to tag me and ask away!

I don't know how to write the cloud function, seems I'll leave out that feature.
Thanks, btw @lost flint

Not an issue at all!
Cloud functions can be built on a number of runtimes: https://appwrite.io/docs/functions#supportedRuntimes

You can also have a look at example functions in this repo: https://github.com/open-runtimes/examples#open-runtimes-functions-examples-️

Might help you understand how they work and how to get started.
Regardless, let me know if you've got any questions 😄

I think I've found an easier way though. I'll save the ID and user name on the database also after user creation. 😀

That will help keep all your code client-side, good
