Scripting creation of console operator accounts

(imported topic written by beasleya)

Hi,

Is there a way I can script the creation of “local” operator accounts in TEM 8.2 ? I have several hundred to do, and even with the new roles feature its pretty tedious !

Cheers,

Andy.

when the user accounts were administered through the BES Admin tool (<8.2), I know you could use the bes admin tool exe from command line and feed it commands to create new users, but that probably don’t help you much with version 8.2

Yes, wasn’t sure if BESAdmin would still work with the changes in 8.2… I will do some testing.

Looks like BESAdmin still works for user creation in 8.2… but the key options are no longer required.

BESAdmin /createuser: /userpassword: /customcontent:<yes/no> is all that is needed to create a local operator

Does anyone know if there is a switch for show unmanaged assets ? or any new switches for role assignments ?

Yes, you can set /unmanagedAssetPrivilege:all, /unmanagedAssetPrivilege:none, or /unmanagedAssetPrivilege:scanpoint. There are no new switches for setting roles; those need to be done in the console UI for now.

“BESAdmin /createuser: /userpassword: /customcontent:yes” command is helpful creating local operator. However, this user does not have all the permissions such as create operator, create custom site,create role(in tools menu option) etc.

How to create a user who has all the permissions withing console what a master console operator has?
