How can I implement an API to search user by their emails?

Should I save user detail in my own DB and sync them somehow? Or does kinde support some kind of search api? I am choosing the auth SaaS for my new app. Thanks a lot.

Hey @Yang Liu, Do you wan to offer your users an API where they can seach a user by their email in your user data? Or are you purely just wanting a way to search users in your Kinde user data by email? If this is what you are after, you could do this with the List Users API call and add the user's email as a value in the email parameter.

I read your given link. So I can let my webpage send a request to my backend, and my backend transfer the request to kinde. Cool, thanks for quick response. I just want let my users search others by email and add them as contacts.

love your product product for now. Your documents are much more understandable than auth0 for a newer like me.
