Bulk Archival of inactive users

Fionnuala Callan April 8, 2020

Hi,

I've inherited a poorly maintained Jira database - there are hundreds of users that haven't logged on in a number of years....  

The Admin User Interface for filtering users is very basic - is there an easy way for me to filter say all users who haven't logged on in more than a year and do a bulk archival of these users?

Thanks!

There is not any delivered functionality unless you want to use the webservice and create your own app.  There are several apps that do this and you can install and test them to find out which one will work best for you.  https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?product=jira&query=delete%20users

Hi @Fionnuala Callan 

We've noticed that many users have been requesting an "Inactive User Anonymizer" feature for anonymizing users who have been inactive for a certain time. I’m pleased to inform you that our app, User Data Cleanup for Jira, includes this functionality. It allows you to easily anonymize inactively or never-logged-in users based on your specified time frame. 

Key features of this app include:

  • Highly customizable and modular: Configure multiple cleanup rules that can be applied to a single or bulk of users. Maximize control over user-specific data cleansing.

  • Two-Stage Cleanup: Leaving Day & Permanent: Apply a two-stage cleanup process: deactivate, remove, or transfer specific user data on the leaving day, retain necessary information for traceability, and execute a permanent cleanup.

  • Preview & Retrospect: Cleanup Control: Before performing cleanup actions for single or multiple users, use the Preview to check all planned actions. Use the Retrospect to check previously cleaned data for specific users.

We believe UDC can save you time and effort, and we’d love for you to give it a try. You can find more details and download our app here.
