Bulk delete for the deactivated users via API?
Is it possible to bulk delete for the deactivated users via API?
- josh.skeen1.4283705083512795E12 (Okta, Inc.)Hi Al, Our Developer support team actually came up with a Python script that can achieve this goal. This action is not reversible, however, so I would strongly advise testing this script in a Preview/test Org before running it in any Production Org. There are instructions for running this script here: https://github.com/SohaibAjmal/Okta-UD-Scripts#how-to-run-script. The script itself is here: https://github.com/SohaibAjmal/Okta-UD-Scripts/blob/master/delete_users.py I hope this helps!Expand Post
- j5v7c (j5v7c)I cobbled together a powershell script for this as well. FYI, I cobbled together a powershells script that we run on a schedule to keep our deactivated users tidy. I am by no means elegant at scripting, but it works. # this script uses the Okta module (https://github.com/mbegan/Okta-PSModule) to get a list of deprovisioned accounts that havent had a status changed in X days and outputs it to a CSV.# It then users the Okta.Core.Automation module (https://github.com/okta/okta-sdk-dotnet/tree/legacy/Okta.Core.Automation) to delete said accounts from Okta# not elegant, but functional until there are better powershell tools out there# Last modified 7/6/17 - Nikki D #Set the Variables$TerminatedAccountWhen = ((Get-Date).AddDays(-45)). date$logfile = "C:\Scripts-IDM\Results\Oktadeactivateduserstargetedfordelete_$((Get-Date).ToString('MM-dd-yyyy_hh-mm-ss')).txt"$recoveryfile = "c:\scripts-idm\results\oktadeactivate.csv"$workfile = "c:\scripts-idm\results\workfile.csv"$path = "C:\Scripts-IDM\Results"$limit = (Get-Date).AddDays(-95). date # creating a transcript for auditing$ErrorActionPreference="SilentlyContinue"Stop-Transcript | out-null$ErrorActionPreference = "Continue"Start-Transcript -path $logfile #Generating the list with Okta module$env:PSModulePathimport-module OktaoktaListDeprovisionedUsers -oOrg prev | where {$_.statusChanged -lt $terminatedaccountwhen} | export-csv -path $recoveryfile -notypeinformationoktaListDeprovisionedUsers -oOrg prev | where {$_.statusChanged -lt $terminatedaccountwhen} | Select id | export-csv -path $workfile -notypeinformation #executing delete with core.automationImport-Module Okta.Core.AutomationConnect-Okta -Token "XXXXXXXXX" -FullDomain "https://yourorg.oktapreview.com"Import-csv $workfile | % {Delete-OktaUser $_.id} Stop-Transcript #Clean up old CSVsGet-ChildItem -Path $path -Recurse -Force | Where-Object { !$_.PSIsContainer -and $_.CreationTime -lt $limit } | Remove-Item -ForceExpand Post
