JIRA - a way to creat 500 internal users?

[wajdhaikal]

Hi,

Is there a way to create 500 internal JIRA users (bulk).

we don't have active directory, or other type of integration facility. Do we need to create them manually?

Thanks,

[Mizan]

You can even use jelly scripts . here is an example . Documentation for enabling jelly and running jelly scripts is here .

This will work for 4.4

You can add the users from a csv file using JCLI Please find more information at https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/display/JCLI/JIRA+Command+Line+Interface

Here is an example how an input csv file for addUserWithFile might look: http://hg.crowsoftware.com/jira-cli/src/debb94f28ce8/src/main/resources/examples/addUserWithFile.csv

I have written a plugin that may help:

@Patrick McMahon Hey Patrick, I installed your Plugin but didn't find the step-1 to begin with, I don't see the features to upload my CSV. Could you please say how can I do it on Server/Datacenter JIRA versions? I installed the plugin and I can see it manage apps, but not the features either in components/Csv import.

Your user must have the admin role and then the link will appear on the main menu bar.

I'm the admin of this instance as System/Jira admin, but unfortunately didn't find that option. Do you mine sharing the image of how it looks like?

Check your user in the User Management:

for the jira-administrators group.

The link appears in the top menu bar:

Hi @Patrick McMahon Thanks for the response. I found it yesterday night after looking at everything for several hours. Sometimes, we don't focus on important locations and look elsewhere. Your app is really great, it did my job on Free trial. It has added users very quickly. It would be great if you could update the documentation on identifying this app location after we installed and the features we'll get once we purchase the app ( We're looking for this ). 

Adding these points for other Atlassian users

Limitations: 

1) Can add only 4 users only on limited trial, but can have more repetitions. 

2) Please keep your import CSV file as the format it shows on the app documentation. Currently, app do not have this functionality to identify the items as per the column headers in your CSV. 

3) If there are one user existed in the system already, the followed rows in your CSV list will get stopped and may not be imported. I'm not sure about the premium version though.  Try to get your sheet prepare - you can do a VLOOKUP by taking the export of users that you already have in Jira and then prepare your sheet to use this app.

I'd like to see the Script Runner way of doing this

[Mizan]

I wrote a small script which can create bulk users . This runs on the script console {code} import com.atlassian.jira.user.util.UserUtil import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor; def uu=ComponentAccessor.getUserUtil() uu.createUserNoNotification("testauto", "testauto", "testauto@test.com", "testauto") {code}

Hi Mizan could you share the complete code for this? Thanks!

[Arun]

Hello Mizan, would you be able to share your code to add bulk users using spreadsheet?

Thanks in advance!
