migrate users from another server using AD into a Crowd directory

[spearmint_man]

Im moving an instance of Jira, Confluence and Crowd from one region to another in AWS.

Whats the best way to migrate users in crowd from an instance in crowd using AD and move to an instance which is not going to use AD, e.g. a crowd dir.

Neither instance can see each other nor ever will.

We have migrated Jira & Confluence sucesfully, and have a new instance of crowd, but havent migrated anything from Crowd yet.

How would you go about migrating users with minimal effort.

Hi @spearmint_man ,

An option would be to use REST API. By getting a CSV export of the users and then looping through them and creating each one.
