<![CDATA[How to bulk import users with no password hash?]]>I'm trying to import users without a password hash from Frontegg using importUsers in the TypeScript SDK.

Although the importusers documentation, https://fusionauth.io/docs/apis/users#request-6, says only a username and email is required, the code is telling me You must specify the [user.password] property for each user.

I've set passwordChangeRequired to true. I see some of the other user API methods have sendSetPasswordEmail, but this isn't available on the import method.

Is there a setting I can change to allow import with no password? Or must I use another method? Or is this a bug? I don't think any of the other migration tutorials we've written haven't had password hashes available.

Thanks.

Found this thread that may be helpful for you as well.

FYI, it looks like there may be a misunderstanding with the username and email. From the docs -> You must provide either the email or the username field for each User.

I'll try on Monday. Thanks for the forum link.
