.. py:method:: DirectoryServiceData.Client.list_users(**kwargs)

  

  Returns user information for the specified directory.

   

  This operation supports pagination with the use of the ``NextToken`` request and response parameters. If more results are available, the ``ListUsers.NextToken`` member contains a token that you pass in the next call to ``ListUsers``. This retrieves the next set of items.

   

  You can also specify a maximum number of return results with the ``MaxResults`` parameter.
