User status

The user list has a status column and an Active column.

The status column shows a tag only when something is different about the account:

  • Federated: the user signs in through a federated identity provider.
  • Inactive: the account is disabled.
  • Not verified: the user has not verified their email.

An active, verified user who is not federated has an empty status cell. The Active column shows a check for an active user.
