User Scripts

Overview

User Scripts are Python-based automation tools that execute operations on a predetermined list of users. Users can be selected either through custom filters configured by the administrator or by importing rows from a CSV file. These scripts enable you to:

• Retrieve information about users in bulk
• Perform batch operations on selected users
• Automate repetitive user management tasks

Note: User Scripts must be executed manually by the administrator.

Accessing User Scripts

To access the User Scripts configuration screen:

1. Navigate to the Users main menu
2. Select Scripts from the sub-menu
