User management

Add user as a developer to all projects

# omnibus-gitlab
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:import:user_to_projects[username@domain.tld]

# installation from source
bundle exec rake gitlab:import:user_to_projects[username@domain.tld] RAILS_ENV=production

Add all users to all projects

Notes:

  • admin users are added as masters
# omnibus-gitlab
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:import:all_users_to_all_projects

# installation from source
bundle exec rake gitlab:import:all_users_to_all_projects RAILS_ENV=production

Add user as a developer to all groups

# omnibus-gitlab
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:import:user_to_groups[username@domain.tld]

# installation from source
bundle exec rake gitlab:import:user_to_groups[username@domain.tld] RAILS_ENV=production

Add all users to all groups

Notes:

  • admin users are added as owners so they can add additional users to the group
# omnibus-gitlab
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:import:all_users_to_all_groups

# installation from source
bundle exec rake gitlab:import:all_users_to_all_groups RAILS_ENV=production

Maintain tight control over the number of active users on your GitLab installation

  • Enable this setting to keep new users blocked until they have been cleared by the admin (default: false).
block_auto_created_users: false

Disable Two-factor Authentication (2FA) for all users

This task will disable 2FA for all users that have it enabled. This can be useful if GitLab's config/secrets.yml file has been lost and users are unable to login, for example.

# omnibus-gitlab
sudo gitlab-rake gitlab:two_factor:disable_for_all_users

# installation from source
bundle exec rake gitlab:two_factor:disable_for_all_users RAILS_ENV=production
