How to bulk modify user ids using CLI?

Vineeth S Holla

Hi, I have a file with predefined User IDs and its associated Email IDs listed, now I want to update the User IDs to Email IDs in bulk. How can this be done using Bob Swift CLI.

I can use updateUser action to update a single User ID but how multiple User IDs can be updated in bulk?.

Please help me with this...

No Sanjana, I have tried the solution present in the link, but I am getting the error saying: 'xargs' is not recognized as internal or external command, after running below line:

cat data.txt | xargs -n 2 sh -c './jira.sh --server https://SERVER --user USER --password PASSWORD --action updateUser --userId $0 --userEmail $1'
