A user listing is useful when you want to display records related to an authenticated user. I.e. a user that has logged into their account.
For example, you may want to create a listing for your users to see their assigned tasks, which are stored in a separate table on Airtable. This guide will provide step-by-step instructions on how to achieve this.
