Delete Tutorial Users

Tom Mitchell edited this page Aug 10, 2016 · 1 revision

After a tutorial is complete the temporary usernames must be deleted from the identity provider. The UI does not lend itself to this operation but it is possible to use shell scripting to delete a series of users.

for ((i=1; i <= 60 ; i++))
do
  base=nfv15u
  username=`printf "%s%02d" ${base} ${i}`
  echo ${username}
  curl -u ${AR_USER}:${AR_PASSWORD} "https://shib-idp.geni.net/manage/acct_actions.php?action=delete&id=${username}"
done
