Hi :)

I need help to create API call that delete users when their status is "Deactivate".

Which authentication method should i use?

Can you show me an example script?

Thanks!

  Hi @KobiVaknin,

   

  You'll want to use JWT auth with enterprise access if you are monitoring / deleting users for an enterprise. Here's a guide on setting that up with the different configuration options. Here's a sample on how to delete a user with the different SDKs.

   

  Thanks,

  Jon

  So the request should be like this?

  Thanks!

   

  from boxsdk import JWTAuth

  import requests

  import json

  from boxsdk import Client

   

  config = JWTAuth.from_settings_file("<file_path>\\config.json")

  client = Client(config)

   

  users = client.users(user_type='managed')

  for user in users:

    if user.status == 'inactive':

      print('User Login: {1}'.format(user.login))
