Dear team,

Is it possible to mass register users in DSpace 7 from the web interface or from the CLI?

You should be able to do that using 'bin/dspace user --add'.
'bin/dspace user --add --help' to see the options.

A script of hundreds of individual invocations of 'bin/dspace' would
take a long time, but you can feed a stream of commands to the tool by
piping them into 'bin/dspace read', which should be a lot faster.
