Create multiple users

Question

Hi,
I would like to create multiple users from my Table Users (Username & Passwords) instead to pass by the express Application Users from apex. I have like 100 users, it will take so long to create with apex.
Is anyone know the sql code to create that with sql workshop ?
Thanks

this is pretty basic but should do it... I haven't tested or anything but should work (or at least with the smallest of tweaks will work). The only problem I can see you encountering will be if the user already exists as I haven't handled this yet but a simple exception handler around the apex_util.create_user call will handle this. You may want to change the password to something else but this at least shows the basics.
declare
cursor my_users is
select user_id user_id, user_id user_name, user_id password
from users;
begin
for u in my_users loop
apex_util.create_user(
p_user_id => u.user_id,
p_user_name => u.user_name
p_web_password => u.password);
end loop;
commit; --can't remember if this needs a commit but shouldn't hurt
end;
