getCredentialsById #

Gets credential information for the user identified by the strategy's unique user identifier userId.

The returned object will vary depending on the strategy (see getById plugin function), and can be empty.

Note: the user identifier to use depends on the specified strategy. If you wish to get credential information using a kuid identifier, use the getCredentials action instead.

getCredentialsById(strategy, id, [options]);

Property	Type	Description
`strategy`	string	Strategy identifier
`id`	string	Credential identifier (this is not the kuid)
`options`	object	Query options
