How do I query a bunch of Users and their associated data? Is it better to use the API or the UI?

[joshua]

Both the API and the UI can pull User Data.

Via API

Docs are here:

• https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/apis/users/#search-for-users
• https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/apis/users/#elasticsearch-search-engine

Via UI

The functionality is nested under the user tab on the upper left nav.

• From there click on the advanced button.
• From there you can enter your query in the search bar.
• Note: If you want to see how the query is constructed, there is also a toggle - Show Elasticsearch Query
• https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/core-concepts/users/#user-search can guide you through a simple user query.
