Add user to confluence.. API

[pb]

Hello,

It is very tedious to add multiple users in Confluence using the GUI. Is there a Rest API or confluence API that I can use to create account?.Basically, I would iike to submit a list a users and have the accounts created

Any links or example would be helpful. I am using confluence 5.4.4

Thanks for your help

You can use the confluence remote API

And a sample for adding user

Boris, Hello!

remote API contains the method "addUser"

void addUser(String token, User  user, String password) - add a new user with the given password

But I do not understand, what kind of entity is this "User"?

Could not you help me?

Have the same issue, don't understand how to pass this data with soap xml

is it possible to add new users with the REST API?

a POST request on "http://confluence-server/rest/api/user" is not allowed even with admin user.

Exactly! I have the same issue when I want to delete user: #<Net::HTTPMethodNotAllowed:0x00000002691d68>

Any news on it?

Are there examples of how to do this with the REST API?
