Back
account
Hi, can i use account.get if i want to check if a user exists ? in a function
TL;DR
Developers can use `users.get(USER_ID)` to check if a user exists, instead of `account.get()`. 
No, account.get() gets the currently logged in user.
You would want to use users.get(USER_ID)

thank you so much, ill try it :)
and can i somehow search by email?
sure, try
TypeScript
const res = users.list([
Query.equal('email', 'USER_EMAIL')
]);
const user = res.users[0]
