There is also this endpoint [/admin/users/list/{flag}.json](https://docs.discourse.org/#tag/Admin/operation/adminListUsers) you can use.

To filter by email you can do:

```plaintext
http://localhost:4200/admin/users/list/active.json?filter=name%40example.com&show_emails=true&order=&asc=&page=1

```

I’ll review the api docs for these endpoints and see if we need to make some updates.
