how to disable a user in bitbucket using database or rest api

Manoj_phz6nz

Hi,

We are trying to disable the users who are inactive on bitbucket for a certain period of time. Using Rest API we are able to fetch the users who are inactive. Users are from an external directory and they are licensed users because of the groups. Can anyone please suggest how to disable the user either by using an API or database?

Hi Manoj

welcome to the Atlassian community.

 

One option is to remove the user from all groups he is member of

POST to this endpoint for removing users from groups (see also https://docs.atlassian.com/bitbucket-server/rest/7.21.0/bitbucket-rest.html#idp36)

• /rest/api/1.0/admin/users/remove-group
• Example POST request body:

<span>{</span>
    <span>"context"</span><span>:</span> <span>"username"</span><span>,</span>
    <span>"itemName"</span><span>:</span> <span>"groupname"</span>
<span>}</span>

 

Let me know if you that works

 

Cheers

Kurt
