De-activate Bulk Users Jira

[Hemanshu Sood]

I have a list of 200 + users which I need to de-activate in my Jira instance. Can this be done with the help of a groovy script. Please suggest

Hi!

You can bulk disable users with this script, you only have to add the username to the "users" array. Also you should check that you have an "admin" user or set the administrator username for the "admin" variable

import com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.impl.ImmutableUser
import com.atlassian.jira.bc.user.UserService
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUsers

//Add usernames here
def users = []

def userManager = ComponentAccessor.userManager
def userService = ComponentAccessor.getComponent(UserService)
def jiraAthenticationContext = ComponentAccessor.jiraAuthenticationContext

//You have to change the value "admin" for your admin user.
def admin = userManager.getUserByName("admin")
jiraAthenticationContext.setLoggedInUser(admin)

users.each{ username ->
    def userToDisable = userManager.getUserByName(username)
    def userToDisableFromDirectory = ApplicationUsers.toDirectoryUser(userToDisable)
    def updateUser = ApplicationUsers.from(ImmutableUser.newUser(userToDisableFromDirectory).active(false).toUser())
    def updateUserValidationResult = userService.validateUpdateUser(updateUser)
    if (updateUserValidationResult.isValid()) {
        userService.updateUser(updateUserValidationResult)
    }
}

I don't know if there's a better script for that, by I've always used this one.

Hope it helps!
