User retrieved successfully

- User — User
  - `id` string, required
  - `auth_id` string, required
  - `email` string, required
  - `read_only` boolean
  - `language` string, nullable
  - `organisation_limit` integer
  - `created_at` string, date-time, nullable
  - `is_organisation_member` boolean
  - `can_use_organisations` boolean, required — Whether the organisation switcher should be shown to this user. True either because they may create organisations of their own, or because they have been invited into someone else's — with a limit of 0 and no memberships the personal organisation is all they will ever have, so there is nothing to switch between.
