+Query Account
+=============
+
+This API returns information about a specific user account.
+
+The api is::
+
+ GET /_matrix/client/r0/admin/whois/<user_id>
+
+including an ``access_token`` of a server admin.
+
+It returns a JSON body like the following:
+
+.. code:: json
+
+ {
+ "user_id": "<user_id>",
+ "devices": {
+ "": {
+ "sessions": [
+ {
+ "connections": [
+ {
+ "ip": "1.2.3.4",
+ "last_seen": 1417222374433,
+ "user_agent": "Mozilla/5.0 ..."
+ },
+ {
+ "ip": "1.2.3.10",
+ "last_seen": 1417222374500,
+ "user_agent": "Dalvik/2.1.0 ..."

If your prometheus is older than 1.5.2, you will need to replace
``static_configs`` in the above with ``target_groups``.
