Hi Divya,

sorting users via the [User API](https://cumulocity.com/api/core/#operation/getUserCollectionResource) isn’t possible.

As a workaround you could use the [local variant of the c8y-data-grid](https://community.cumulocity.com/t/cumulocity-data-grid-tutorial-series-part-1/7211#local-data-example-6). In this case, you load all existing users of the tenant and set them on local `c8y-data-grid` using the `rows` parameter. The local data-grid already comes with basic filter and sortation capabilities.

Best regards
