# Read User Enabled

##

```none
GET {{apiPath}}/v1/environments/{{envID}}/users/{{userID}}/enabled
```

When a new user resource is created, the value specified for the `enabled` attribute determines the user's ability to authenticate. If the `enabled` attribute is omitted from the `POST` request, the value is set to `true` by default.

For existing users, you can use the `GET {{apiPath}}/v1/environments/{{envID}}/users/{{userID}}/enabled` operation to check whether the specified user is enabled or disabled.

### Headers

Authorization      Bearer {{accessToken}}
