Delete connections using User name

[NuwanSameera]

I use Rabbit MQ as my message broker. I need to remove existing connections by user name. Current Management API remove connection by connection_name.
Is there anyway to achieve this use case without modify rabbitmq_management plugin.

UPDATE : I use auth_backend to authenticate user. So user account not available in rabbit-mq user registry

See Revoking User Access.

Another option would be to list connections using rabbitmqctl list_connections name user, filter them and close them one by one. But in most cases, deleting the user is the easiest option.

HTTP API already provides an endpoint for that: DELETE /api/connections/{connection_name}. The management agent plugin does not provide the API but rabbitmq_management does.

Yes. My requirement is need to delete connection by user_name not connection name. Because connection name cannot generate using known parameters.

I don't have much to add to my recommendation above.

List the connections and you can get connection name and user name from it. Just like @michaelklishin said here: #5196 (comment)

You can also use the HTTP API to do this.

There's no need to filter on your own, there's a dedicated command:
rabbitmqctl close_all_user_connections
