Hello Alex,
If you set the following in your universe_wsgi.ini, you'll be able to delete /
purge users.
# Can an admin user delete user accounts?
allow_user_deletion = True
With the above setting, from the Admin perspective, select Manage users.
You're User list grid will include buttons for deleting and purging user
accounts. A user account must be deleted before they can be purged. We keep
the User in the database ( marked as purged ), and stuff associated with the
user's private role in case we want the ability to unpurge the user some time
in the future.
Purging a deleted User deletes all of the following:
- History where user_id = User.id
- HistoryDatasetAssociation where history_id = History.id
- Dataset where HistoryDatasetAssociation.dataset_id = Dataset.id
- UserGroupAssociation where user_id == User.id
- UserRoleAssociation where user_id == User.id EXCEPT FOR THE PRIVATE ROLE
- UserAddress where user_id == User.id
Purging Histories and Datasets must be handled via the cleanup_datasets.py
script.
