- URL: `https://api.blinq.me/v1/me`

Requires the `blinq:identity:read` scope.

## Response `200`

- object: The authenticated user the API key acts as.
  - `user_id` string, required: The ID of the user the API key acts as.
  - `email` string, nullable, required: The user's sign-in email address, or null when the user has none.

## Other responses

- `400`: Bad request - Invalid query parameters or body. See `details` for each failing field
- `401`: Unauthorized - Missing or invalid API key
- `403`: Forbidden - Missing scope, insufficient permission, or the plan does not include this operation
