I’m new to IonicDB so i could be missing something, but im trying to pull all users from the DB and return a subset based on a set of criteria. Looking at the user collection in Database management, I can only see the user\_id field. Is there any additional config required? I also noticed the user collection contained ~19 documents where i only have 3 current users, im assuming a difference between active users in Auth Service and user information in DB. Does anyone know how the synchronisation works? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks ---

You can find how to get user details here: [Ionic Docs - Ionic Documentation](https://docs.ionic.io/services/auth/#user-details) > User Details You can find query here : [Ionic Docs - Ionic Documentation](https://docs.ionic.io/api/endpoints/db.html) > POST /db/collections/:name/documents/query > List documents within a collection matching query If you use .singup(), Ionic db will create a user in both Auth and ‘users’ collection. You can add in more users in ‘users’ collection directly and thus bypass Auth. I guess thats why there is a discrepency in number of documents. Still new to ionic DB too. Correct me if I am wrong.
