AW: API for getting a list of users

There was a typo within the SQL statement:
It must be:

SELECT * from Table(Users()) x;

If you only want to have a list of all user profiles, you may also use the
UDTF USERS() located in schema QSYS2. Try:

Select *

From Table(Users()) x;

The UDTF can be used directly in an SQL Select statement without generating
a temporary file (even though exactly this is done within the UDTF).

For the former the QUSLJOB might suffice (in the interest of full
disclosure: Never used it). But it a list API, which means you have
to build, open, and process the user space (maybe multiple user
spaces). There are examples on the web, and Bruce Vining covers it in
his

"APIs at Work"

tome.

For the latter perhaps the QSYLAUTU (another list) api?

Subject: API for getting a list of users

Is there an api that will provide a list of all the users or better a
class of users on the system?
