Where do I find all users and groups?

Not applicable
I want to get an overview of all available groups and users in alfresco. But at the administration console I only can search for groups and users. I tried to search with jokers and an empty string, but alfresco complains that I have to provide some letters for search. But I don't know any names or parts. Moreover I need an overview of all users and groups, because I want to clean up the list of users and groups.

How can I get all users and groups?

Hi,
next to the "Search" button you can find the "Show All" button that gives you all groups(in the Groups Management page) and all users (in the Users Management page)
Also if you call <a>http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/people</a> and <a>http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/api/people</a> you will get a JSON list of all groups and users.
Moreover if you have a look to these webscripts' definition under alfresco/service/index you'll find they can be parametrized.

Andrea

Login to alfresco explorer :
http://localhost:8080/alfresco

Go to Administration Console > Manage System Users / Manage User Groups.
Here you will find the "Show All" button. It will display all users and groups existing in the system.

There is only a show all for the groups. At the users-page the show-all-button is missing.

It's not possible.
Please find the attached screenshot (Alf_explorer_Show_All_Button.png).

Hi,
this is strange because the two pages are quite the same…
Take a look to the picture coming from an Alfresco Community 4.2.f installation

My user management site looks a bit different. I use Alfresco 4.2.f. Are you sure you use 4.2.f?

I use 4.2.f dor sure.
You're using the Share console and not the Alfresco Explorer console.
Use this link <a>http://localhost:8080/alfresco</a> then login as an administrator and click on the administrator page icon, which is the leftmost next to "Raise an Issue" link, as shown in the attached picture.
Then you'll be able to find the users and groups management pages.
