Example usage
The following is a sample ArcGIS Online request URL used to access the user content resource:
https://org.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/users/jsmith?start=11&num=50&f=pjsonThe following is a sample ArcGIS Enterprise request URL used to access the user content resource:
https://machine.domain.com/webadaptor/sharing/rest/content/users/jsmith?start=11&num=50&f=pjsonDescription
The user content resource returns information on the user's owned items. A user's content are items either in their root content folder (e.g. /content/users/<username>) or in a subfolder of the home folder with the given folder ID. Multilevel folders are not supported. Items in a folder are stored by reference and are not physically in a folder. Rather, they're stored as links to the original item (e.g. /content/items/<itemId>).
Note:
The endpoint is accessible only to the content's owning user or to the administrator of the user's organization.
