How do i search users by id?
Hello fellow Convex users,
I am extremely beginner with Convex and can't really wrap my head around the whole things' mechanics.
I am using Clerk as authentication and I am saving the logged in user into my Convex database fro later. I know that Convex automatically generates an ID for the logged in user, but how do i read that id after the user logs in, so that i can retreive the usr data with queries from the batabase?
Can anyone help out, please?
