Hi! 
I want to create parser using VBA and API ServiceNow. For example, I can get all data from sys_user -
https://sninstance.example.ru/api/now/table/sys_user

My result is :

{
"calendar_integration": "1",
"country": "",
"last_login_time": "",
"u_e_mail_financial": "ff@f.com",
"source": "",
"sys_updated_on": "2018-10-24 12:48:31",
"building": "",
"web_service_access_only": "false",
"notification": "2",
"enable_multifactor_authn": "false",
"sys_updated_by": "fff",
"sys_created_on": "2018-09-13 13:29:51",
"sys_domain": {
"link": "sninstance.example.ru/api/now/table/sys_user_group/global",
"value": "global"
},
"state": "",
"vip": "false",
"sys_created_by": "test",
"zip": "",
"home_phone": "",
"time_format": "",
"last_login": "",
"active": "false",
"sys_domain_path": "/",
"u_address_for_sending_documents": "",
"cost_center": "",
"phone": "",
"name": "Ffff ff",
"employee_number": "",
"password_needs_reset": "false",
"gender": "",
"city": "",
"failed_attempts": "",
"user_name": "ff@ff.com",
"title": "",
"sys_class_name": "sys_user",
"sys_id": "000018d9f9e863008ff068a048a5d115",
"u_additional_company": "",
"internal_integration_user": "false",
"ldap_server": "",
"mobile_phone": "",
"street": "",
"company": {
"link": "sninstance.example.ru/api/now/table/core_company/151f9aacf96063008ff068a048a5d1c5",
"value": "151f9aacf96063008ff068a048a5d1c5"
},
"department": "",
"first_name": "Fff",
"email": "fff.ff@ff.com",
"introduction": "",
"preferred_language": "en",
"manager": "",
"u_current_duty": "false",
"locked_out": "true",
"sys_mod_count": "2",
"last_name": "Massa",
"photo": "",
"u_comment": "",
"middle_name": "",
"sys_tags": "",
"time_zone": "",
"schedule": "",
"u_import_id": "704",
"u_email_signature": "",
"u_available": "",
"date_format": "",
"location": ""
},
 

But this records are too much and I don't want to get all data from this sys_user.
I want to get only one user. I want to search by user's email. But I don't know how to do this.

If user is not find, I will get error. If user exist, I will get his data in JSON (check up). How to create this requset. For example  - 

https://ff-ff.ff-ff.ru/api/now/table/sys_user/searchByEmail:email@email.com

Hi,

You can do it like this

https://your-instance.service-now.com/api/now/table/sys_user?sysparm_query=email%3Dabel.tuter%40example.com&sysparm_limit=1

This will search by email and limit the results to 1
