List all customers ​

Returns a list of your customers. The customers are returned sorted by creation date, with the most recent customers appearing first.

Returns ​

A dictionary with a data property that contains an array of up to limit customers, starting after customer starting_after. Passing an optional email will result in filtering to customers with only that exact email address. Each entry in the array is a separate customer object. If no more customers are available, the resulting array will be empty.

Parameters ​

  • created (object, optional) Only return customers that were created during the given date interval.

    • created.gt (integer, optional) Minimum value to filter by (exclusive)

    • created.gte (integer, optional) Minimum value to filter by (inclusive)

    • created.lt (integer, optional) Maximum value to filter by (exclusive)

    • created.lte (integer, optional) Maximum value to filter by (inclusive)

  • email (string, optional) A case-sensitive filter on the list based on the customer’s email field. The value must be a string.

    The maximum length is 512 characters.

  • ending_before (string, optional) A cursor for use in pagination. ending_before is an object ID that defines your place in the list. For instance, if you make a list request and receive 100 objects, starting with obj_bar, your subsequent call can include ending_before=obj_bar in order to fetch the previous page of the list.

  • limit (integer, optional) A limit on the number of objects to be returned. Limit can range between 1 and 100, and the default is 10.

  • starting_after (string, optional) A cursor for use in pagination. starting_after is an object ID that defines your place in the list. For instance, if you make a list request and receive 100 objects, ending with obj_foo, your subsequent call can include starting_after=obj_foo in order to fetch the next page of the list.

  • test_clock (string, optional) Provides a list of customers that are associated with the specified test clock. The response will not include customers with test clocks if this parameter is not set.
