script running under the identity of a user can access User Properties for that user only.

String[]
getProperties()
Deprecated. This function is deprecated and should not be used in new scripts.
Get all of the available properties at once.
This gives a copy, not a live view, so changing the properties on the returned object won't
update them in storage and vice versa.
UserProperties.setProperties({
"cow" : "moo",
"sheep" : "baa",
"chicken" : "cluck"
});
// Logs "A cow goes: moo"
Logger.log("A cow goes: %s", UserProperties.getProperty("cow"));
// This makes a copy. Any changes that happen here will not
// be written back to properties.
var animalSounds = UserProperties.getProperties();
// Logs:
// A chicken goes cluck!
// A cow goes moo!
// A sheep goes baa!
for(var kind in animalSounds) {
Logger.log("A %s goes %s!", kind, animalSounds[kind]);
}
Return
Object — a copy of the properties containing key-value pairs
