Find Users

Search Okta users with a query. The query performs a startsWith match against a user's first name, family name, or email address. It displays the first record that matches or the first 200 matching records.

If you pass nothing into the card, it returns a random user because of the startsWith wildcard matching.

See Find Users in the Okta API documentation.

This card displays either the first record that matches, the first 200 matching records, or it can stream all matching records.
