# DeleteUserFromGroup

DEPRECATED:

The `DeleteUserFromGroup` action is deprecated in OmniGroupServer 10.8.0 and later. Use the Import action instead.

The `DeleteUserFromGroup` action is still available for existing implementations, but it might be incompatible with new functionality. The action might be deleted in future.

Removes a specified user from a specified group in a specified repository.

## Example

`http://12.3.4.56:4000/action=DeleteUserFromGroup&Username=John Smith/MYCOMPANY/UK&Groupname=Group/MYCOMPANY/UK&repository=NT`

This action uses port `4000` to instruct the group server located on a machine with the IP address `12.3.4.56` to remove the user `John Smith/MYCOMPANY/UK` from the `Group/MYCOMPANY/UK` group in the `NT` repository.

## Parameters

Parameter | Description | Required
--- | --- | ---
EncryptResponse | Encrypt the output. |
FileName | The file to write output to. |
ForceTemplateRefresh | Forces the server to load the template from disk. |
GroupName | The group that the user is to be removed from. | Yes
Output | Write output to a file. |
Repository | The repository that contains the group that the user is to be removed from. | Yes
Template | The template to use for the action output. |
TemplateParamCSVs | A list of variables to use for the specified template. |
UserName | The user that is to be removed from the specified group. | Yes

## Notes

This action can also be achieved using `action=Import`. For example:

    Action=Import&Repository=...&FileData=<The_Following_Content_URL_Escaped>

    "
    #USER MyUser
    #DELETEGROUP NotMyGroup
    #GROUP MyGroup
    #DELETEUSER NotMyUser
    "

This would be the same as calling `DeleteUserFromGroup` with the parameters

    Username=MyUser&Groupname=NotMyGroup

and then calling the action again with the parameters:

    Username=NotMyUser&Groupname=MyGroup

NOTE:

If a user is indirectly a member of a group then neither the `DeleteUserFromGroup` or `Import` action removes the membership. For example, `MyUser` could be a member of a group that is itself a member of `NotMyGroup`.
