How to update multiple user's username value and properties such as email address using scriptrunner

Ronny March 25, 2019

Hi all,

I have found the below 2 url which explained on how to update Jira user's username in bulk.

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/How-to-bulk-rename-username/qaq-p/216275

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Bulk-update-usernames-in-JIRA-7-DelegatingApplicationUser/qaq-p/460954

However I need additional help on how to set scriptrunner so it will read the a csv file so it can set the "new_username" based on the existing "old_username" which already set in Jira.

The csv file will have content like :

 

oldUserName1  newUserName1

oldUserName2  newUserName2

...

This is an old question, but in case anyone comes upon it as I did earlier, here is an answer (which relies heavily on can i update user email using script? ).

I needed to update the email value and then the username (we use email address for username).

Not pretty, but it works.

import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser
import com.atlassian.jira.bc.user.ApplicationUserBuilderImpl
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.util.AttachmentUtils
//import com.atlassian.jira.util.PathUtils
import org.apache.log4j.Level
import org.apache.log4j.Logger
Logger.getLogger("com.onresolve.scriptrunner").setLevel(Level.DEBUG)

def myCSV = 'userRenames.csv' // MUST BE A TEXT FILE
def issue = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager().getIssueObject("SSNCATLAS-1656") // Key for attachment issue
def aM= ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentManager()
def uM = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()
def attachments = aM.getAttachments(issue)

attachments.each{ a ->
def fileName = a.filename
log.warn fileName + ' is the user source'
// This method to get the file path is deprecated, but it works
def filePath = AttachmentUtils.getAttachmentFile(a)
// Concatenation only works for projects which have never edited their project key
// Anyone know a way to get the original project key?
// def pathManager = ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentPathManager()
// def filePath = PathUtils.joinPaths(pathManager.attachmentPath, issue.projectObject.key, '10000', issue.key, a.id.toString())
if (fileName.toString() == myCSV) {
File fileContents = new File(filePath.toString())
def mailChange = 0
if (fileContents) {
def lines = fileContents.readLines()
for (item in lines) {
def columns = item.split(",")
def oldMail = columns[0]
def newMail = columns[1]
// log.info "Old mail is " +oldMail + " and new mail is " +newMail // items before change
def user = uM?.getUserByName(oldMail) as ApplicationUser
def userCheck = uM?.getUserByName(newMail) as ApplicationUser
// Excel compatible logging: item|action|result
if ((! user) && (! userCheck)) {
log.info oldMail + "|" + "No action|User does not exist" // log when no user exists
}
if ((userCheck) && (! user)) {
log.info oldMail + "|" + "No action|Only new account " + newMail + " exists; nothing to do" // log when only new account exits
}
if ((userCheck) && (user)) {
log.info oldMail + "|" + "Duplicate|Migration required for " + newMail // log when two accounts are present
}
if ((user) && (! userCheck)) {
// def check = uM.canRenameUser(user) // Boolean in case perms or directory type is in question
//log.info "Check was " +check
def nMail = new ApplicationUserBuilderImpl(user).emailAddress(newMail.toLowerCase()).build()
uM.updateUser(nMail)
mailChange = 1
log.info oldMail + "|" + "Action|User was uptated to " + newMail // log when user is updated
}
}
}
if (mailChange == 1) {
// Yes, you have to re-declare the user to perform a second update
def lines = fileContents.readLines()
for (item in lines) {
def columns = item.split(",")
def oldMail = columns[0]
def newMail = columns[1]
def user = uM?.getUserByName(oldMail) as ApplicationUser
def userCheck = uM?.getUserByName(newMail) as ApplicationUser
if ((user) && (! userCheck)) {
def nName = new ApplicationUserBuilderImpl(user).name(newMail.toLowerCase()).build()
uM.updateUser(nName)
log.info oldMail + "|Action|User email was updated to " + newMail
}
}
}
}
}

I use your script to only update User Emails and it works great.

Thanks!

update user mail with script groovy:

 

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.bc.user.ApplicationUserBuilderImpl
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser

def um = ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()

//edit jira_username
def user = um.getUserByName('jira_username') as ApplicationUser 
def newData = new

//edit newemailaddress
ApplicationUserBuilderImpl(user).emailAddress('newemailaddress').build() 

um.updateUser(newData)
