# User

A User Object contains the state of a user. It inherits all members from the [Entity Object](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/developers/cloud-dev/entity.html "Entity"), and adds the following properties:

| Name | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `policy` | [Link](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/developers/cloud-dev/link.html) | A link to the [Policy Resource](https://doc.sitecore.com/ch/en/developers/cloud-dev/policy-1523359.html) that is applicable to this user. |
