Delete all users

[sobotka]

Is there a way how to delete all/big portion of users from Alfresco ? Another then one by one in the Manage System Users web console.

Meanwhile I found a "solution": when importing users from LDAP (which is my case) in the ldap-authentication-context.xml this can be set:

        <property name="clearAllChildren">
            <value>true</value>
        </property>
‍‍‍‍‍

However this doesn't delete user folders. So the original question is still pending …

Hi

There is no easy way to bulk delete users, or to clean up home folders of users obliterated via LDAP import. You could bind policies to the person object to do this. See home folder creation for an example fo how to do this.

This will go on the list of improvements.

Hi,
is there any support for multiple delete of users in Alfesco 3.2 ?

Meanwhile I found a "solution" how to delete all users imported from ldap: set a ldap search filter in ldap.synchronization.personQuery which does not return any user and run full synchronization (set synchronization.synchronizeChangesOnly=false and synchronization.import.cron to some reasonable time). All these pars in alfresco-global.properties.
How simple !

Only the home folders must be deleted manually. Use webDAV for bulk delete.
