Is there a user_created date?​

No. Flagsmith does not currently store an automatic created_date trait for users/identities.

Can I create common User Traits for all users in the same environment?​

No. Traits are specific to individual Identities (Users) and are created automatically when you identify the user in the SDK.

How do I identify an anonymous user? What about running AB tests with anonymous users?​

You must generate a unique identifier (like a random GUID/hash) on your client side, store it (e.g., in a cookie), and pass it to the identify method. For A/B tests to be consistent, this ID must persist across sessions.

When querying identities, is it possible to sort by creation date?​

No. Searching and sorting identities is currently in the backlog.

Is there way to render traits in users list in your webUI?​

Not directly in the main list. You can view traits for a specific user by clicking into their profile, or view users belonging to a segment that is defined by traits.
