The end point is based on artur’s reply [over here](https://discourse.getcockpit.com/t/authenticate-api-with-username-and-password/2472/4)

i was able to count the number of users by using the following code

```auto

 $app = Cockpit::instance();
   try {

       if ($app->dataStorage->getCollection('system/users')->count()) {
            $usercount= $app->dataStorage->getCollection('system/users')->count();
            echo $usercount. "nos of users" ;
            
            if ($usercount>1){
               
                    echo "test";
                     // code for spitting out array of users?
                     
                    
               
                
            }
            exit;
    }

    } catch(Throwable $e) { }

    
    ?>

```

I am not sure what you mean by “manage”, provided you are asking how to fetch api keys over rest api than the answer is same approach as @artur 's original code +

```auto
return [
    'status' =>'success',
    'apiKey' => $user['apiKey'],
    'email' =>$user['email']
   

];

```

edit: i didnt try to fetch all details though, so i am unsure if it works or not

also i didnt find a way to fetch details of all users via curl/rest api as of yet. i would highly appreciate if someone could help me out
