not able to fetch user data
I am unable to fetch all users from my Appwrite Cloud project.
My project has around 3700 users, but the API always returns only 25 users even though I created a new API Key with all scopes enabled (Select All).
- /users?limit=100 → returns only 25 users
- /users?offset=100 → still returns the same 25
- cursorAfter() and queries[] also return only 25
- No "total" field in the response
- Error logs show: "User (role: guests) missing scopes ['users.read']"
even though the API key definitely has users.read and all other scopes enabled.
It looks like the API key is stuck at guest permission level internally.
Please refresh/repair the scope assignment for my project or regenerate a valid admin-level system key. I urgently need full user export.
TL;DR
Issue: Unable to fetch all users from Appwrite Cloud project due to API limiting responses to 25 users only, even with correct scopes assigned.
Solution: Request a scope refresh or regenerate an admin-level system key in order to access the full list of users for export.
