how to get all the jenkins users through api

Question

I'm trying to get all the user in jenkins by using api .

For example I hit the following command in postman and it is showing me all the jobs in jenkins .

Url = 192.168.195.150:8080/api/json?pretty=true

Result:

        }
    ]
}

How can I modify that Url so that I can list out all the users in Jenkins ?

It would be more better if it list out user permissions along with the jobs allocated to each user.

You can get the list of Users using below:-

https://<yourjenkins>/asynchPeople/api/xml?depth=1

Get all the Jenkins user using the below code in jenkinsfile:-

import hudson.model.User

User.getAll().each { user ->
   println user
}

Please refer the link for more information:

You can use the api4jenkins python package Get all users from Jenkins

relevant docs are here: https://api4jenkins.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/example.html#system

The question was asking about the API end points. This is a solution for sure, but not a direct answer to the question. You may explain why a direct API call is not possible and then show this as an alternate answer. – Md Monjur Ul Hasan Jan 03 '22 at 15:21
