Building on what Harry said.... There's no convenience function in the API do this that I know of, so you'd probably have to just query the Security DB for usernames.
Like: xquery version "1.0-ml"; import module namespace sec="http://marklogic.com/xdmp/security"; at "/MarkLogic/security.xqy"; declare function local:get-usernames() { for $name in /sec:user/sec:user-name/text() order by $name return $name }; local:get-usernames() But you'd have to run that against the Security DB either by using xdmp:invoke or by using the dreaded xdmp:eval. And you'd probably want use and amp and permissions to restrict this kind of access. -Ryan Date: Fri, 6 Apr 2012 12:46:02 -0600 From: dna...@gmail.com To: general@developer.marklogic.com Subject: Re: [MarkLogic Dev General] Retrieving a list of users When I've done this, I use queries against the Security database to get the info. You can use Query Console to get a handle on how data is structured in the Security DB and I found great success with just using Xpath queries. One thing I found difficult to do was distinguish app/real users from system accounts, etc. The way I dealt with this was to add xml to the sec:password-extra element that contained user details, what applications they are users for, etc. The only downside, if it is one, is that you have to invoke these queries against the Security DB... I can give you some code examples, etc. if you have specific questions.

The desire is to have this limited admin GUI available and integrated into a larger XQuery-based web interface. I see functions to create, delete and modify Marklogic users, but I don't see a way to get a list of them. Is there such a function? Or, is there a way to query the security database to get such a list?
