Get Creator Users per group

JeffTimm — Thu, 16 Apr 2020 21:13:27 GMT

I am struggling with getting all of the creators in a certain group in my Enterprise portal environment.

I am using Enterprise Notebook.

group = gis.groups.get("6bde3136acbb48bcba1edc2eca61eac6")
response = group.get_members()
for user in response['users'] :
print(user)

will list all the users in specified group, but how do I limit it further to only Creators?

Hey Jeff Timm‌,

You can print out the creators using something like so:

group = gis.groups.get("6bde3136acbb48bcba1edc2eca61eac6")
response = group.get_members()
for user in response['users'] :
if(user.userLicenseTypeId == "creatorUT"):
print(user)

Let me know if you have any issues with the above.

Thanks,

Ben

I still get an error. I tried something similar to what you proposed. It is the user type that I have issues with.

Hey Jeff Timm‌,

So I just checked the API and the group.get_memebers() returns an array of usernames and not user objects like I thought it would. I think if you change it to something like this you will have some better luck:

group = gis.groups.get("6bde3136acbb48bcba1edc2eca61eac6")
response = group.get_members()
for username in response['users'] :
   user = gis.users.get(username)
   if(user.userLicenseTypeId == "creatorUT"):
      print(user)
