Transform Script to show active/inactive users.

[Andrew112]

Hello, I have a transform script on a table transform map that I want to go through all the users, initially set to inactive, and then set to active to make sure that only active users are in the User table everytime the User list is loaded from external source. (It is loaded every day at a set time)

I have the following: 

onStart 

(function runTransformScript(source, map, log, target /*undefined onStart*/ ) {

var users = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
users.query();
var user = users.next();
while(user !== null){
	user.Active = false;
	user = users.next();
}
})(source, map, log, target);

onAfter

(function runTransformScript(source, map, log, target /*undefined onStart*/ ) {

target.Active = true;

})(source, map, log, target);

It has been 1.5 hours, and it is still running. 

Is there any better way to accomplish what I am trying to do here?

Hi Andrew, 

Inactivating all active user(s) through the data import transform map is not a good solution, If any user trying to login during the inactivated state they will redirected to  logout page.

Instead, use the column mapping along with coalesce ( i.e. user_name or employee number ) then only new record will insert and existing record will update if chances expected through the daily data feed.    

var users = new GlideRecord('sys_user');
users.query();

// either use updateMultiple 
users.setValue('active',false);
users.updateMultiple();

or 

// iterate the gliderecord resultset. 
while (users.next()){
 users.active = false;
 users.update();
}

Thanks,

Ashish
