Automatic User Lifecycle Management

Automatic User Lifecycle Management

This plugin manages the full lifecycle of Moodle user accounts using freely configurable, multistep workflows.

Each workflow can consist of multiple steps with one or more filters (e.g. last access, authentication method, role assignment, ...) that determine which users are selected, and actions (e.g. send email, suspend, delete, ...) that are executed when a user enters a step. This allows building simple as well as sophisticated user lifecycle workflows, i.e., warn inactive users, suspend them after a grace period, and finally delete their accounts in a GDPR-compliant way. A built-in dry-run mode and action log let administrators safely preview and audit all automated activity. The default filters and actions can easily be extended by further subplugins.
