Users

This manager helps retrieve basic user information for any user on Discord.

Fetch information about the currently connected user account. If you're interested in getting more detailed information about a user—for example, their email—check out our GetCurrentUser API endpoint. You'll want to call this with an authorization header of Bearer <token>, where <token> is the token retrieved from a standard OAuth2 Authorization Code Grant flow.

Returns a Discord.User.

None

cs
var user = userManager.GetCurrentUser();
Console.WriteLine("Connected to user {0}", user.Id);

Get user information for a given id.

Returns a Discord.Result and ref Discord.User via callback.

cs
userManager.GetUser(userId, (Discord.Result result, ref Discord.User user) =>
{
  if (result == Discord.Result.Ok)
  {
    Console.WriteLine("User {0} is {1}", user.Id, user.Username);
  }
});

Get the PremiumType for the currently connected user.

Returns Discord.PremiumType.

None

cs
var userManager = discord.GetUserManager();
var premiumType = userManager.GetCurrentUserPremiumType();
switch (premiumType)
{
  case PremiumType.None:
    Console.WriteLine("User is not a Nitro subscriber");

  case PremiumType.Tier1:
    Console.WriteLine("User has Nitro Classic");

  case PremiumType.Tier2:
    Console.WriteLine("User has Nitro");

  default:
    return;
}

See whether or not the current user has a certain UserFlag on their account.

Returns bool.

cs
var userManager = discord.GetUserManager();
if (userManager.CurrentUserHasFlag(Discord.UserFlag.HypeSquadHouse1))
{
  Console.WriteLine("User is a member of House Bravery!");
}

Fires when the User struct of the currently connected user changes. They may have changed their avatar, username, or something else.

None

cs
var userManager = discord.GetUserManager();
// GetCurrentUser will error until this fires once.
userManager.OnCurrentUserUpdate += () => {
  var currentUser = userManager.GetCurrentUser();

  Console.WriteLine(currentUser.Username);
  Console.WriteLine(currentUser.Id);
  Console.WriteLine(currentUser.Discriminator);
  Console.WriteLine(currentUser.Avatar);
};

cs
var discord = new Discord.Discord(clientId, Discord.CreateFlags.Default);

var userManager = discord.GetUserManager();
userManager.GetUser(450795363658366976, (Discord.Result result, ref Discord.User user) =>
{
  if (result == Discord.Result.Ok)
  {
    Console.WriteLine("user fetched: {0}", user.Username);
  }
  else
  {
    Console.WriteLine("user fetch error: {0}", result);
  }
});
