# Users - view primary email address

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Welcome to Our New API Docs!** This is the new home for all things API (previously at [Canvas LMS REST API Documentation](https://api.instructure.com)).

## Users - view primary email address

### What it Does

#### People (Account)

Allows user to search for account users via primary email address in the account People page.

Allows user to search for other users via primary email address in a course People page.

### Additional Considerations

#### People (Account)

To view the account People page, Users - view list must be enabled.

If this permission is disabled, and Users - view login IDs is enabled, users will still see email addresses used as login IDs.
