JavaScript: Retrieve a user

• Fetches the user object from the database instead of local storage.
• Note that user() fetches the user object from local storage which might not be the most updated.
• Requires the user's access_token.

Examples

Fetch the user object using the access_token jwt.

const \{ user, error \} = await supabase.auth.api.getUser(
  'ACCESS_TOKEN_JWT',
)
