 Default value for the `perpage` parameter is `1000` and for the `page` parameter is `1`. The `totalCount` field in the response can be used for pagination of the user list E.g. if `totalCount` is equal to 100 users and the `perpage` parameter is set to 10 then there are 10 pages of users. The `query` parameter is optional and it will return results where the query value is contained in one of the `name`, `login` or `email` fields. Query values with spaces need to be url encoded e.g. `query=Jane%20Doe`.
