Getting a users ID when searching email address via API

Hi All

I'm trying to get a users ID when searching the API for an email address, but it doesn't return the ID.

The search I am using is:
https://myserver/apirest.php/search/User?criteria[0][field]=5&criteria[0][searchtype]=contains&criteria[0][value]=" + requester +"&forcedisplay=[1,2,5,9,13,14,80]"

However with or without forced display it won't return field 2, the ID.

Is there another way to get the users ID by querying the email address?

GLPI V9.2.1

Many thanks

David

Maybe this is a issue of this version.

I already used the 9.2.1, but it's have many bugs.

Re: Getting a users ID when searching email address via API

try this url : (it works with glpi  9.5.4)

$url="/search/User?criteria[0][field]=5&criteria[0][searchtype]=contains&criteria[0][value]=".myemail."&forcedisplay[0]=1&forcedisplay[1]=2&forcedisplay[2]=5&forcedisplay[3]=9&forcedisplay[4]=14&forcedisplay[5]=80";

Re: Getting a users ID when searching email address via API

This code is perfect, however when I am trying to search the user based on name example user login is 3000022 but it doesn't work, if I replace 3000022 with email address then it works,

any idea how to get the user ID # by searching the name/login_name ?

I am trying to get

// GET USER ID

$name = "3000022";

        $api_url="http://192.168.252.102/apirest.php";
        $url = $api_url . "/search/User?criteria[0][field]=1&criteria[0][searchtype]=contains&criteria[0][value]=^". $name. "$&forcedisplay[0]=2";
        //$url=$api_url . "/listSearchOptions/User";
        $ch = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $headers);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, 'GET');

        //curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$input);
        $json = curl_exec($ch);
        curl_close($ch);

        $obj = json_decode($json, true);
        $agentbadge = $obj['data']['0']['2'];
        echo "AgentBadge: $agentbadge";
