User
User in the Paycux API: the endpoints, the fields they accept and return, and a working request in three languages.
Overview
The User resource is part of the Paycux API. Every field below is returned on every representation of the object, so you can rely on its shape across list, read and write calls.
| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| id | string | Stable identifier, prefixed per resource type. |
| object | string | The resource name, useful when handling webhook payloads. |
| created_at | timestamp | ISO 8601, always UTC. |
| updated_at | timestamp | ISO 8601, always UTC. |
Endpoints
Every endpoint is authenticated with a bearer token and scoped to the environment the key belongs to.
