Manually importing users into the liferay 5.2 database.

[Burton Wynne, modifié il y a 14 années.]

Currently the development team that I am on is exploring the possibility of importing liferay users manually from our own data store. Does anyone know all of the tables we would have to populate in the liferay 5.2 database in order to 'create' a user in the same way a user would be created if it were to be created via the portal?

thanks in advance,

There are plenty of tables involved in 'proper' import. Easy solution is import users in CSV file and use Liferay Webservice to read CSV file and create user ( which will make sure referential integrity of DB and users will be created same way as they created using UI).

1.Import users to CSV
2.Generate WSDL Stubs from Liferay WSDL URL ( pretty easy using Eclipse)
3.Use User Service to generate users referring details from CSV.
