Import users

If you’re migrating from other auth providers to Hanko, you can import your existing users directly to Hanko Cloud Console.

User IDs should be in UUID format.

Upload the file and import

The file you’re importing should be structured as a JSON array of objects. Each object within this array represents a user with their respective details. For a better understanding of how to structure your user data, refer to this schema.

users.json
[
  {
    "user_id": "d0f8fe0f-9fd0-4974-a927-63aaa54be787",
    "emails": [
      {
        "address": "arvidwalsh@schumm.biz",
        "is_primary": true,
        "is_verified": true
      }
    ],
    "created_at": "2023-07-11T13:41:50.290862Z",
    "updated_at": "2023-07-11T13:41:50.290862Z"
  },
  {
    "user_id": "c8d1628d-9258-4686-9063-1334fc7b0a7a",
    "emails": [

      }
    ],

Export users

You can use the Hanko Admin API to retrieve a list of users with all their details, for export purposes.

We’ll add a proper export feature similar to the import described above to Hanko Cloud soon.

Hanko Admin API is a paid feature.
