'lo. We’re using hosted discourse with OAuth. We suddenly realized that when we process deletions, we’re neglecting to delete from our discourse instance. I’d like to be able to anonymize an account, OR delete an account programmatically using the API – but I don’t see an easy way to do that, given that I don’t know what the discourse account ID is. Am I missing something obvious? Any suggestions? Thanks, Andrew

Do you know if email addresses match between your OAuth identity provider and Discourse? If they do, you could get the Discourse user based on their email address by making an authenticated API request to /admin/users/list/all.json?email= . For example: curl -X GET "http://localhost:3000/admin/users/list/all.json?email=bob@example.com" \ -H "Api-Key: $api_key" \ -H "Api-Username: system"

They should match, thank you – that was the call I was missing. Verifying.

I am also interested in using an api call to anonymize a user. What is the API endpoint you are using to anonymize a user?

The API endpoint for anonymizing: HTTP Method: PUT Endpoint: https://example-community.dev/admin/users/{id}/anonymize [תמונה] Anonymize user - blank response from API on attempt? Development Hi folks, I’m trying to hit the endpoint to anonymize a user in Discourse; I’ve got single sign-on between WordPress and Discourse set up, and when the user deletes their account on WordPress I want to anonymize them in Discourse. The endpoint is /admin/users/{id}/anonymize: put: description: | Anonymize a user tags: - Admin parameters: - name: id in: path required: true type: integer responses: '200': description: succesfully anonymized user … you can use the call shown above to get the {id} value if you already know the email of the user you want to anonymize [תמונה] simon: curl -X GET "http://localhost:3000/admin/users/list/all.json?email=bob@example.com" \ -H "Api-Key: $api_key" \ -H "Api-Username: system"

Was the /anonymize endpoint removed form the API docs? I was looking here: Discourse API Docs Under users as well as admin.

It might not have been added to the api docs yet, I’ll make sure it gets documented soon.

@sarahann the /anonymize route has been added to the api docs.

Phew! Scared me for a sec :stuck_out_tongue: Thanks for the speedy turnaround on this!
