What is a user?

A User is an entity that has properties such as first name, last name, email, phone etc... Usually this entity type is reserved for people but can be used for non-human actors such as devices which need access to an account.

    "id": "1234",
    "firstName": "John",
    "lastName": "Doe",
    "email": "[email protected]",
    "phoneNumber": "+46720000000",

    "username": "savvyEnergyUser",
    "ssn": "198904080000",
