Chances are you didn't know it, but this forum has a REST API. And guess what - one can use the new "Web Request" and "Iterate Web Request" actions to interact with the API!

Below is a sample project that pulls a list of recently active users (using the Web Request action) and then obtains publicly available details (full name, last seen timestamp) for each user with the help of the "Iterate Web Request" action.

The project comes with an embedded connector to the forum API already configured, so all you need is just run it.
