We are having 500+ Vaults and it's hard to manage the Users manually to add or remove from Vaults on demand if they change the Projects, Do we have a way programatically to update any user's permission on any vault?

Service accounts seems not managing the vault and we can only read, write or share using service account but not add/remove new user in the vault.

Hi @automationgfg ,

Thanks for reaching out. The best way to get this done right now is with a combination of the 1Password CLI and a script (likely Bash/Python) to update the vaults. Here's an article walking you through provisioning for users.

Example

op vault user grant --user wendy.appleseed@agilebits.com --vault Prod --permissions allow_editing,allow_managing

Additionally, we have the SCIM bridge that provides a more automated approach, depending on your setup.
