How do I bulk change usernames in Confluence?

[ualr_admin]

Hi, folks,

     We're migrating from Server to Cloud and, as part of that migration, I'd like to change our usernames. They currently match the NetID UID in an Open LDAP directory and I'd like them to match the Username UID in AD. How would I go about making that change, I guess as a pre-step in the migration?

     I have access to the database on the back end and am comfortable working with it.

Thanks,

     John A

Hi @ualr_admin ,

Thanks for posting.

Ae you interested in using Marketplace apps as part of this? If yes, please check this one - https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/284/confluence-command-line-interface-cli?hosting=server&tab=overview to bulk update the user name and check this guide - https://bobswift.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CSOAP/pages/1066778517/updateUser.

Please accept the answer if it solves your query.

Note : I am not working as Marketplace Partner and this response was just based on user query.

Thanks for the reply! It turned out the usernames updated correctly when the accounts linked on email.

This Confluence CLI is not supporting for UserID update as REST API does not support. but it supports for JIRA
