Bulk delete users in CLI using CSV file
AnsweredHi, I need to do a bulk delete of a few hundred users using the CLI. The "Commands and Actions" page suggests a method to do this using a JSON file; however, I have everything in a CSV already, and I really don't want to convert it. The page further states "CSV files are also supported for bulk actions, but require special CSV templates."
I've been searching for those special templates, but can't find them. What is the proper format for bulk deleting users using a CSV file?
Thanks in advance!

Hey ,
Thanks so much for using our platform and development forum!
Here are some templates: https://cloud.app.box.com/s/pmtx7ho4abpbqkylkiw8g7ycji7cpegz

Thanks very much. I didn't see a template for DeleteUsers, but the CSV template for DeleteCollaborators worked.
Essentially, the CSV file just needs a single column with the header Id, which lists the numeric IDs of the accounts to be deleted. Then the command below will delete the users and all their data:
box users delete --bulk-file-path "c:\path\to\file.csv" -y -f
Thanks again!
