Python API to get the list of login users from Administration/Security/Users

[Dominic-S]

Hi,

  Is there a way to use Dataiku's Python API to get the list of login users info (Login, Type, Groups, etc) posted in Administration/Security/Users?

  Thanks,

Hi,

You can indeed use the Python API to access user related information.

There is a specific section for users and groups that you can check here: https://developer.dataiku.com/latest/api-reference/python/users-groups.html#users-and-groups

For example:

import dataiku
client=dataiku.api_client()
users=client.list_users()
for i in users:
    print("----------")
    myuser=client.get_user(i['login'])
    print("Login name: ",i['login'])
    print("Display name: ",i['displayName'])
    print("Type: ",i['sourceType'])
    try: print("Email: ",i['email'])
    except: print("Email: N/A")
    print("Groups :",i['groups'])
    print("Last successful login: ", myuser.get_activity().last_successful_login)

Feel free to modify this example snippet to suit your business requirements. Please note that depending on your DSS version the exact commands syntax may vary.
