Meteor.users.find -> Corresponding JSON

help
1

I am taking a looking at the JSON Object returned when calling Meteor.users.find(). The data looks something like:

{ ‘7YpiN5uAmHzE6SD38’:
{ _id: ‘7YpiN5uAmHzD4SP78’ },
hZjaH5FJifE7opqiJ:
{ _id: ‘hZjaH5FJifE7opqiJ’}
}

When I call find() on any other collection, the JSON will looks exactly how we expect it:

[
{ _id: ‘m7E3SaDeTDcXf8QsZ’
},
{ _id: ‘KDcCsxQF6uC3SYtJt’,
}
]

Why is the data on the users collection retrieved this way? Is there a way to retrieve user documents in a more normalized way?

Thanks!

That’s pretty strange as I don’t have the same behavior on my applications.

What version of Meteor do you use?
