Is there any way to manage(add) users at a large scale?

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

It is easy and user-friendly to add a user via List Users page. I suppose the command superset fab createuser will achieve the same goal with a prompt. But I’m frustrated when I try to create a batch of users. For example, I want to add four different users as public role with default password. Repeatedly filling forms is not a good idea.

I guess the user management is related to .superset\superset.db. Connect to the database and insert values should do the job.

Describe the solution you’d like

1. An admin user could download a sample csv/xlsx(with header). The admin will fill the table or write some code snippets to generate the correct csv/xlsx(with header).

2. The admin upload the csv through a superset page. After the process of the csv, the page is refreshed and lists all the users(or part of it with N users in total are created message printed).

e.g.

First Name	Last Name	User Name	Active	Email	Role	Password
Frank	Scarlet	Scarlet	1	[e-mail]	Public	P@ssword

@FrankScarlet,

Like @mistercrunch suggested you can use SQLAlchemy (ORM) to create user’s with multiple roles, here’s what the cli is calling behind the scenes: https://github.com/dpgaspar/Flask-AppBuilder/blob/master/flask_appbuilder/security/sqla/manager.py#L185

You can also do it through the ORM
