Request for Retrieving Available Attributes of the UserAuthenticationMethodModel

Method	GET
Path	/api/v2/objspec/user_authentication_method

Allowed methods

`GET`	for reading data of an existing object; no request body is required
`POST`	for creating an object; requires a request body, specified in JSON format, that contains the values for properties of the object that is about to be created
`PATCH`	for modifying an existing object; requires a request body, specified in JSON format, that contains the values for properties of the object
`DELETE`	for removing an existing object; no request body is required

There is a list of URL parameters available for a specific method to be included within a path:

fields - for including the object fields in the query,

filter - narrows out the result with available additions:

in - include possible field values (separated with comma),

match - include a sequence of characters to be searched in field values,

eq - equal,

ne - not equal,

lt - less than,

le - less or equal,

gt - greater than,

ge - greater than or equal

blocked - filter blocked objects,

!blocked - filter unblocked objects,

isempty() - filter objects with empty values in specified fields, only applies to arrays (e.g., server.isnull()),

order,

offset,

limit,

debug - for showing statistics, database errors, etc,

total_count,

reveal - to see objects: active, removed, or all for both removed and un-removed.

An example of the request that shows a list of 10 users that have a role user with their id and name specified, sorted alphabetically by their names and shows a total count of users that match the given criteria: GET https://<fudo_address>/api/v2/user?fields=id,name&filter=role.eq(user)&order=name&limit=10&total_count

Possible responses

Code	Status
`200`	success	`OK`
`201`	success	`CREATED`
`400`	failure	`BAD REQUEST`; message examples: `Unrecognized endpoint`, `Request body is not allowed for this endpoint`
`401`	failure	`UNAUTHORIZED`
`404`	failure	`BAD REQUEST`; message example: `Object not found`

The next chapter describes procedures for creating separate requests.

Refer to the Batch operations topic to create nested requests for operating on the User objects.
