# Viewing user accounts
Retrieving and viewing user accounts in SonarQube Server 2025.2.
To retrieve and view the user accounts existing in your SonarQube Server:
1. In the top navigation bar, go to **Administration > Security > Users**. The **Users** page opens.
2. Use the filter bar to filter the list of users.
{% hint style="info" %}
If the automatic provisioning mode is used in your system, the users are organized in two different tabs on the **Users** page:
* The **From \** tab (where \ is the provider with which auto-provisioning is configured in SonarQube Server, e.g., GitHub or GitLab) contains the auto-provisioned user accounts.
* The **Local** tab contains all other users (called local users in SonarQube Server). For more information, see **Local user concept** in [Overview of authentication and provisioning](/sonarqube-server/2025.2/instance-administration/authentication/overview.md).
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-server/2025.2/instance-administration/user-management/viewing-users.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
