Hi Francesco, Thanks for your suggestion.
I tried the below steps to create users from .csv file. I could see pull tasks “execution status” are SUCCESS but I don’t find users are getting created in syncope. If any configuration is missed, please let me know. 1. Verified csvdir bundle exists in /var/lib/apache-syncope/bundles/ 2. Created “/opt/csv-files/test.csv” cat test.csv username,testcolumn usr1,test 3. From admin console, created csvdir connector instance with below values Display name=csv-conn Location=/var/lib/apache-syncope/bundles Bundle=net.tirasa.connid.bundles.csvdir Source path=/opt/csv-files [override selected] File mask=*.csv [override selected] Key column name=username Column names=testcolumn [override selected] Capabilities=CREATE *** other values are default 4. Created csv resource with below values Key=csv-resource Connector=csv-conn Source path=/opt/csv-files [override selected] File mask=*.csv [override selected] Column names=testcolumn [override selected] *** other values are default 5. Created pull task Name=pulltest Destination Realm=/ Pull mode=FULL_RECONCILIATION Schedule=Every 5 minutes *** other values are default Regards, Vellingiri From: Francesco Chicchiriccò [mailto:ilgro...@apache.org] Sent: Monday, September 19, 2016 4:22 PM To: user@syncope.apache.org Subject: Re: Syncope user creation from REST client On 19/09/2016 12:49, Mani, Vellingiri (Nokia - IN) wrote: Ok. I understand your response. > which is the source for these users? Actually, we have user information in text/excel file. Creating users manually is a difficult job. We don’t have external connector. You might want to consider the CSVDir connector: https://connid.atlassian.net/wiki/display/BASE/CSV+Directory You will need to play around a bit with its configuration, but it should work. Regards.

Is it possible in Syncope ? Bulk actions are available for the operations defined at [1] (see some samples at [2] under the "Delete several users at once" example) - which does not include create. Instead of bulk creating thousand users via REST, I would rather suggest to rely on some external connector: which is the source for these users? Can't they be pulled from DB / LDAP / ...? Regards.

I would need to do bulk user creation from REST. I started to create single user from REST client and it fails. From postman, I tried to create a user with below inputs. I get '400 Bad Request'. If there is anything wrong in the request, please correct me. Is all fields mandatory during user creation. POST - http://135.249.22.223:8080/syncope/rest/users Authorization: Basic Auth - admin/password Headers: Content-type: application/json Body: { "@class": "org.apache.syncope.common.lib.to.UserTO", "creator": "admin", "lastModifier": "admin", "key": "rest1", "type": "USER", "realm": "/", "status": "Active", "auxClasses": [], "plainAttrs": [], "derAttrs": [], "virAttrs": [], "resources": [] } Hi, you should remove (not troublesome, just ignored): * creator * lastModifier * key * status About what is mandatory, I can see there is no username. Moreover, it depends on how you can your schemas and classes configured. Please also take a look at logs to figure out what might go wrong.
