will list every user in the system. This can be a dangerous operation if you have tens of thousands of users stored. Some backends will list every user in the system. This will search just local {{book.project.name}} database and not the federated database (ie. LDAP)
like LDAP don't have a way to page through users and must return the whole user set! So be careful before you execute a view all search. because some backends like LDAP don't have a way to page through users. So if you want the users from federated backend to be synced into {{book.project.name}}
database you need to either:
* Adjust search criteria. That will sync just the backend users matching the criteria into {{book.project.name}} database.
* Go to `User Federation` tab and click `Sync all users` or `Sync changed users` in the page with your federation provider.
See <<fake/../../user-federation.adoc#_user-storage-federation,User Federation>> for more details.
