You can also fetch details on a single user.

Usage examples

#!/usr/bin/env python3

import zulip

# Pass the path to your zuliprc file here.
client = zulip.Client(config_file="~/zuliprc")

result = client.get_members()
# You may pass the `client_gravatar` query parameter as follows:
result = client.get_members({"client_gravatar": False})
# You may pass the `include_custom_profile_fields` query parameter as follows:
result = client.get_members({"include_custom_profile_fields": True})
print(result)

More examples and documentation can be found here.

const zulipInit = require("zulip-js");

// Pass the path to your zuliprc file here.
const config = { zuliprc: "zuliprc" };

(async () => {
    const client = await zulipInit(config);

    // Get all users in the realm
    console.log(await client.users.retrieve());

    // You may pass the `client_gravatar` query parameter as follows:
    console.log(await client.users.retrieve({client_gravatar: true}));
})();

curl -sSX GET -G https://chat.mededtech.ru/api/v1/users \
    -u BOT_EMAIL_ADDRESS:BOT_API_KEY

You may pass the client_gravatar query parameter as follows:

curl -sSX GET -G https://chat.mededtech.ru/api/v1/users \
    -u BOT_EMAIL_ADDRESS:BOT_API_KEY \
    --data-urlencode client_gravatar=false \
    --data-urlencode include_custom_profile_fields=true

Parameters

client_gravatar boolean optional

Example: false

Whether the client supports computing gravatars URLs. If enabled, avatar_url will be included in the response only if there is a Zulip avatar, and will be null for users who are using gravatar as their avatar. This option significantly reduces the compressed size of user data, since gravatar URLs are long, random strings and thus do not compress well. The client_gravatar field is set to true if clients can compute their own gravatars.

Changes: The default value of this parameter was false prior to Zulip 5.0 (feature level 92).

Defaults to true.


include_custom_profile_fields boolean optional

Example: true

Whether the client wants custom profile field data to be included in the response.

Changes: New in Zulip 2.1.0. Previous versions do no offer these data via the API.

Defaults to false.


Response

Return values

  • members: (object)[]

    A list of user objects, each containing details about a user in the organization.

    • user_id: integer

      The unique ID of the user.

    • delivery_email: string | null

      The user's real email address. This value will be null if you cannot access user's real email address. For bot users, this field is always set to the real email of the bot, because bot users always have email_address_visibility set to everyone.

      Changes: Prior to Zulip 7.0 (feature level 163), this field was present only when email_address_visibility was restricted and you had access to the user's real email. As of this feature level, this field is always present, including the case when email_address_visibility is set to everyone (and therefore not restricted).

    • email: string

      The Zulip API email address of the user or bot.

      If you do not have permission to view the email address of the target user, this will be a fake email address that is usable for the Zulip API but nothing else.

    • full_name: string

      Full name of the user or bot, used for all display purposes.

    • date_joined: string

      The time the user account was created.

    • is_active: boolean

      A boolean specifying whether the user account has been deactivated.

    • is_owner: boolean

      A boolean specifying whether the user is an organization owner. If true, is_admin will also be true.

      Changes: New in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 8).

    • is_admin: boolean

      A boolean specifying whether the user is an organization administrator.

    • is_guest: boolean

      A boolean specifying whether the user is a guest user.

    • is_billing_admin: boolean

      A boolean specifying whether the user is a billing administrator.

      Changes: New in Zulip 5.0 (feature level 73).

    • is_bot: boolean

      A boolean specifying whether the user is a bot or full account.

    • bot_type: integer | null

      An integer describing the type of bot:

      • null if the user isn't a bot.
      • 1 for a Generic bot.
      • 2 for an Incoming webhook bot.
      • 3 for an Outgoing webhook bot.
      • 4 for an Embedded bot.
    • bot_owner_id: integer | null

      If the user is a bot (i.e. is_bot is true), then bot_owner_id is the user ID of the bot's owner (usually, whoever created the bot).

      Will be null for legacy bots that do not have an owner.

      Changes: New in Zulip 3.0 (feature level 1). In previous versions, there was a bot_owner field containing the email address of the bot's owner.

    • role: integer

      Organization-level role of the user. Possible values are:

      • 100 = Organization owner
      • 200 = Organization administrator
      • 300 = Organization moderator
      • 400 = Member
      • 600 = Guest

      Changes: New in Zulip 4.0 (feature level 59).

    • timezone: string

      The time zone of the user.

    • avatar_url: string | null

      URL for the user's avatar.

      Will be null if the client_gravatar query parameter was set to true, the current user has access to this user's real email address, and this user's avatar is hosted by the Gravatar provider (i.e. this user has never uploaded an avatar).

      Changes: Before Zulip 7.0 (feature level 163), access to a user's real email address was a realm-level setting. As of this feature level, email_address_visibility is a user setting.

      In Zulip 3.0 (feature level 18), if the client has the user_avatar_url_field_optional capability, this will be missing at the server's sole discretion.

    • avatar_version: integer

      Version for the user's avatar. Used for cache-busting requests for the user's avatar. Clients generally shouldn't need to use this; most avatar URLs sent by Zulip will already end with ?v={avatar_version}.

    • profile_data: object

      Only present if is_bot is false; bots can't have custom profile fields.

      A dictionary containing custom profile field data for the user. Each entry maps the integer ID of a custom profile field in the organization to a dictionary containing the user's data for that field. Generally the data includes just a single value key; for those custom profile fields supporting Markdown, a rendered_value key will also be present.

      • {id}: object

        Object with data about what value the user filled in the custom profile field with that ID.

        • value: string

          User's personal value for this custom profile field.

        • rendered_value: string

          The value rendered in HTML. Will only be present for custom profile field types that support Markdown rendering.

          This user-generated HTML content should be rendered using the same CSS and client-side security protections as are used for message content.

Example response(s)

Changes: As of Zulip 7.0 (feature level 167), if any parameters sent in the request are not supported by this endpoint, a successful JSON response will include an ignored_parameters_unsupported array.

A typical successful JSON response may look like:
