InfluxDB Users API is one of 40 APIs that [InfluxDB](https://apis.io/providers/influxdb/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification and an AsyncAPI event-driven specification. Tagged areas include User. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an AsyncAPI specification, authentication docs, and a getting-started guide.

Retrieve specific users. InfluxDB Cloud lets you invite and collaborate with multiple users in your organization. To invite and remove users from your organization, use the InfluxDB Cloud user interface (UI); you can't use the InfluxDB API to manage users in InfluxDB Cloud. Once a user is added to your organization, you can use the `GET /api/v2/users` and `GET /api/v2/users/USER_ID` API endpoints to view specific members. ### User sessions with authorizations Optionally, you can scope an authorization (and its API token) to a user. If a user signs in with username and password, creating a _user session_, the session carries the permissions granted by all the user's authorizations. To create a user session, use the [`POST /api/v2/signin` endpoint](#operation/PostSignin). ### Related guides - [Manage users](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/cloud/organizations/users/)
