How to get list of logged in users using REST API

[Sachit Tiwari]

How can we get a list of logged in users using REST API or check if a user is online or not using REST API.

Hi Sachit,

You can query the v_user_session table to find active sessions. Use the REST API Explorer to change the returned results. See below example

GET https://yourinstanceID.service-now.com/api/now/table/v_user_session?sysparm_query=user!%3Dguest&sysparm_limit=1

Hi Sachit,

this table stores the logged in users "v_user_session"; It stores User and whether the session is Active or not.

once user logs out the entry for that user is removed from this table.

So you can use this table with below query in REST API

Http Method: GET

Endpoint: https://instanceName.service-now.com/api/now/table/v_user_session?sysparm_query=active%3Dtrue

Mark ✅ Correct if this solves your issue and also mark 👍 Helpful if you find my response worthy based on the impact.
