/api/v1/users.info
Retrieves information about a user. The result is only limited to what the callee has access to view.
From version 7.0.0, this endpoint no longer supports the fields parameter, even when the ALLOW_UNSAFE_QUERY_AND_FIELDS_API_PARAMS: true environment variable is set. Instead, use the includeUserRooms parameter.
