Use this endpoint to retrieve the profile of the currently authenticated user. The response confirms the identity tied to the Bearer token you are using. If the token belongs to a user who has never accessed the HackGATE API before, the system automatically provisions their account on first call — no separate registration step is required.

​
Endpoint

GET https://api-admin.hackgate.io/api/account/currentUser

​
Request

​
Authorization
string
required
Bearer token. See Authentication.

​
Response

​
email
string
The email address associated with the authenticated user’s account.

​
Behavior

  • Existing user — returns the profile for the account already on record.
  • New user — if no account exists for the authenticated identity, HackGATE creates one automatically and returns the new profile. You do not need to call a separate registration endpoint.

​
Example

curl https://api-admin.hackgate.io/api/account/currentUser \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <token>"

{
  "email": "researcher@example.com"
}
