Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Change: Feature Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new users.list parameters can ignore an explicitly empty custom-field filter and do not consistently require permission when a parameter is supplied with a false value. This is a bounded contract and authorization inconsistency that should be corrected before merge. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@apps/meteor/server/api/v1/users.ts`:
- Line 680: Update the authorization and validation logic around the
customFields handling condition and its corresponding block so parameter-key
presence, rather than truthiness, determines behavior. Require
canViewFullOtherUserInfo when either customFields or includeCustomFields is
present, including customFields= and includeCustomFields=false, and parse
customFields whenever its key is present so empty values receive the endpoint’s
400 validation response.

Learning: In this repository (RocketChat/Rocket.Chat), Biome lint rules are not used even if a biome.json exists. When reviewing TypeScript files (e.g., packages/ui-voip/src/providers/useMediaSession.ts), ensure lint suggestions do not reference Biome-specific rules. Rely on general ESLint/TypeScript lint rules and project conventions instead.

Learning: In the Rocket.Chat repository, do not reference Biome lint rules in code review feedback. Biome is not used even if biome.json exists; only reference Biome rules if there is explicit, project-wide usage documented. For TypeScript files, review lint implications without Biome guidance unless the project enables Biome rules.

Proposed changes (including videos or screenshots)
Adds two parameters to
GET /v1/users.list, replacing whatqueryandfieldsdid for integrations that segment users by a custom field:customFieldsincludeCustomFieldscustomFieldsin each user; the endpoint otherwise projects nine fixed fieldsExact match only, no operators, no nesting, no regex — accepting those would recreate the parameter this replaces. Keys carrying
$or.are rejected and every key is prefixed withcustomFields., so a filter cannot reach any other field. The shape followslivechat/rooms, which already takescustomFieldsas a JSON object.Both parameters require
view-full-other-user-info. SincecustomFieldsis not in the endpoint's default projection, filtering by a value the caller cannot read would confirm it one guess at a time — and the response carriesnameandusername, which turns that into linking a private identifier to a person. Reading and filtering answer to the same permission, asusers.infoalready does.Issue(s)
Precedes the removal of
ALLOW_UNSAFE_QUERY_AND_FIELDS_API_PARAMS, so the replacement exists before the capability goes away. #41948Steps to test or reproduce

No new permission is introduced.
view-full-other-user-infoalready exists and already decides who sees custom fields onusers.info. What changes is when it applies here: it is now required to filter by any custom field, where thequeryparameter it replaces demanded it only for fields not declaredpublic.In practice, an integration that filters by a public custom field without holding that permission works today and gets
403after migrating. Granting the permission to its role fixes it — worth checking with integrations that callusers.listwith the end user's own token rather than a service account.Summary by CodeRabbit
