Purging inactive users from TestFlight

Pretty hacky flow, but this will remove anyone that was invited but not accepted their TestFlight invitation.

Start the Ruby REPL

$ irb

Setup your environment and select the your team

require "spaceship"
Spaceship::Tunes.login("felix@krausefx.com", "password")
Spaceship::Tunes.select_team

Set variables you'll need

app = Spaceship::ConnectAPI::App.find("COM.YOUR.APP.ID")

Then get all the users

testers = app.get_beta_testers(includes: "betaTesterMetrics,betaGroups", limit: 200)

Go to App Store Connect. Keep scrolling and loading builds at the bottom of the page until there are no more builds. This will show the last-unexpired build.

The last build should say something like "Expires in 4 days".

In irb, set the last-unexpired build.

last_build = 1

Filter testers that should be removed:

• Users in the Beta group and last-status is over 2 weeks (avoid removing anyone just-invited)
• Users on an expired build.
  • Note that to_i will be 0 for users that have not accepted an invitation. This will also then automatically remove people who have not accepted an invite in over 2 weeks.

> remove_testers = testers.select{ |t| \
  t.beta_groups.first.name == "YOUR_BETA_GROUP_NAME" \
  && ((Time.now - Time.parse(t.beta_tester_metrics.first.last_modified_date)) / 60.0 / 60.0 / 24.0) > 14 \
  && t.beta_tester_metrics.first.installed_cf_bundle_version.to_i < last_build \
}

To check how many users you will remove

remove_testers.length()

Then remove them from TestFlight

remove_testers.each{|t| t.delete_from_apps(apps: [app]) }

Done!
