Select user by meta value - Wordpress

I have this code:

    $user = get_users( array (
            'meta_query' => array(
                array(
                    'meta_key'     => 'token',
                    'meta_value'   => '344793879185b4924a7d',
                ),
                'orderby'      => 'meta_value',
                'order'        => 'DESC',
                'number'       => '10',
            )
        ) );

        return count($user);

This returns me all the users.

This returns false, with notice:

Only variables should be passed by reference in

$user = reset(
   get_users(
   array(
   'meta_key' => 'token',
   'meta_value' => '344793879185b4924a7d',
   'number' => 1,
   'count_total' => false
  )
)
);

There is only one user with that metakey with that value.

The warning

Only variables should be passed by reference in

is because you are passing the function result directly into reset function which expects a variable.

Apart from that the result that you are getting when using the second code will output a wp_user object and not an array so resetting the indexing is not actually needed.

Your code should be something like this:

$user = get_users(
    array(
        'meta_key' => 'token',
        'meta_value' => '344793879185b4924a7d',
        'number' => 1,
        'count_total' => false
    )
);
