This was one of the interesting article i would say for importing users in bulk into MicroStrategy
How to import users from a .udf file in the MicroStrategy Desktop 9.x User Manager
This document provides the format used when importing users into the metadata from a flat file.
- Each line represents an entry of a user or a group.
- Each field in the line must be kept, even if it is empty; otherwise the entry will be ignored.
- The syntax of the line should exactly follow the format below:
IsGroup:Login:Full Name:Description:group1,group2,...:xyz
* IsGroup is a flag if equals:
1(a group)Login and xyz fields will be ignored.
0(a user)Login and Full name fields must be provided
* x,y,z are flags:
if x is 1 then the account is disabled.
if y is 1 then user cannot change password and z is ignored.
if z is 1 then user must change password at first
logon (it is recommended to use this option).
* group1,group2 ... indicates the membership of the new user or group.Valid examples:1::MSTR:Whole Company::
1::Technology:This is our technology group:MSTR:
0:Joe:John Doe:Standard user: Standard group,Technology:000
0:John:John Smith::MSTR,Public:110
0:AdminTest:Mike John:The system administrator:MSTR,Technology:001- Save the file with the preceding syntax as a .udf file.
- Right-click in the User Manager and select ‘Import Users from File’.
- In the Import Users/Groups From File window, select the .udf file from the ‘Import from file’ menu. Click on ‘Load’.
