Create the Users

Each participant in a Conversation is represented by a User object and must be authenticated by the Client SDK. In a production application, you would typically store this user information in a database.

Execute the following commands to create two users, Alice and Bob who will log in to the Vonage Client and participate in the chat (Conversation).

vonage apps:users:create Alice
vonage apps:users:create Bob

This will return user IDs similar to the following:

User created: USR-aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-0123456789ab

Make a note of these as you'll need them later.
