Bulk Delete / Reactivate
-
you can bulk soft delete users, but can you bulk reactivate them?

@randall It does not look like there is a bulk reactive. I thought you might be able to use the Import Users API, but it looks like it will throw errors on duplicates. Looks like you will have to loop through the users to enable them.

Managing users in bulk can definitely be a bit nerve-wracking when you're doing it for the first time.
If you’re looking for a quick way to handle this, the FusionAuth Search API is probably your best friend here. You can run a query to get the IDs of the users you want to target, and then loop through them with a simple script using the Delete User API.
If you just want to "deactivate" them instead of a hard delete, you can toggle the active flag to false in the User object. This is usually a safer bet if you think you might need to reactivate them later without losing all their historical data or linked identities. Just a heads-up: make sure you have a good backup of your database before running any bulk scripts—it's saved my skin more than once!
