About this project

The Custom Space User Management (CSUM) add-on gives Space Administrators the ability to manage allows more efficient and scalable management of users and user groups associated with their Atlassian Confluence Wiki Spacesspaces.

Using this add-on, Space Administrators can:

  • Create / delete user-groups that can be space-specific (optional)
  • Add / remove users from user-groups associated with a given wiki space
  • Create new users automatically as part of their addition to a user-group (optional, and provided that LDAP is available to fetch user details needed to create user account)
  • View a list of current users for a selected user-group
  • Search users to add / remove from selected user-group (optional)
  • Create users and user-groups in Jira (optional, and provided that you are using Jira for Confluence user management)
  • Create a user-group with a comma-delimited list of users in a single operation (optional)
  • Perform bulk user add / remove operations for user-group(s)
  • Full control over UI messages for localization and internationalization (l10n/i18n). You can also just use this to tweak your messages for your environment.
Note

CSUM can only be used to manage users and groups in a read-write repository via the Confluence API. If you are using a read-only LDAP repository or similar as your primary repository, even though it supports using LDAP to validate usernames as a secondary repository, it will not be able to manage users/groups if the access to that repository via the Confluence API is read-only.

In recent 2.x series of builds, the LDAP integration appears to have become completely broken, this will be fixed in an upcoming
  • Management can be made specific to Confluence spaces, allowing delegation of responsibility to space administrators
  • Create, rename and delete user groups
  • View group membership
  • Add multiple users to multiple groups in one action
  • Dynamically search users to add to or remove from selected groups
  • The majority of the user interface makes use of Confluence's own internationalisation system, meaning that if Confluence is in your language, CSUM will be too. For the areas where a translation is needed, this is possible by creating an i18n translation properties file.


Note
titleLDAP Support

LDAP integration has ceased to function correctly in recent versions of CSUM. This will be fixed in a future release.
