In your second attempt, I see you're supplying a list of UserSelectorArg, that is `[user]`, instead of just a single UserSelectorArg as documented, that is just `user`, so you get that ValidationError.
In your third attempt, I see you are using the correct parameter names and types, but note that you don't need to call it three times. It looks like you're not setting anything on that first call, so that one seems unnecessary. Edit: unless that first line is just copied from the documentation, and not something you're actually running?
