The FreeSWITCH user directory is based on a centralized XML document, comprising of one or more <domain> elements. Each <domain> can contain either <users> elements or <groups> elements. A <groups> element contains one or more <group> elements, each of which contains one or more <users> elements. In turn, a <users> element contains one or more <user> elements. A small, simple example would look like the following:
<section name="directory">
<domain name="example.com">
<groups>
<group name= "default">
<users>
<user id="1001">
<params>
<param name="password" value="1234"/>
</params>
</users>
</user>
</group>
</groups>
</domain>
</section>
