Hi all! I’m having an issue where I’ve set up the mail server using SES and running the test
PYTHONPATH=. bin/run ./manage.py send_test_mail
works just fine, I get the email on REDASH_MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER from REDASH_MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER.

Now when setting up new users in the UI they seem to not get an invite email. I do get the message:
The user has been created and should receive an invite email soon. You can use the following link to invite them yourself: https://mydomain.co/invite/blabla

Tried inviting while logged in as the REDASH_MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER (me@mydomain.co) - same thing.

Remoting into the server image and running
PYTHONPATH=. bin/run ./manage.py users invite newuser@mydomain.co newuser me@mydomain.co

Got me this:

sed: can’t read .env: No such file or directory

If I echo back my REDASH_HOST it is correct - the root of my redash, so that has been set.
This is my docker-compose.yml

And this is my .env

REDASH_MAIL_USE_SSL=false
REDASH_MAIL_USERNAME=user
REDASH_MAIL_PASSWORD=pw
REDASH_MAIL_DEFAULT_SENDER=me@mydomain.co
REDASH_HOST=https://mydomain.co

The me@mydomain.co and the newuser@mydomain.co emails have been verified in SES. And the host is as simple as the above - mydomain is data.mycompanyname.co so nothing weird in it. Any ideas?

I was still facing this issue with redash 5.0.2 and given Google SSO isn’t working, I needed to bulk invite users …

Solved with https://code.luasoftware.com/tutorials/flask/flask-url-for/

have to have a request - can use app.test_request_context

For example, importing users from a csv:

import csv
from redash import models, settings, create_app
from redash.handlers.users import invite_user
from flask import current_app

inviting_user_email = "mymail@mail.com"

app = current_app or create_app()
org = models.Organization.get_by_slug("default")
groups = [org.default_group.id]
user_from = models.User.get_by_email_and_org(inviting_user_email, org)
with open('users.csv', 'rb') as csvfile, app.test_request_context(base_url="https://{}".format(settings.HOST)):
  userreader = csv.reader(csvfile, delimiter=',', quotechar='"')
  for user in userreader:
    user_new = models.User(org=org, name=user[0], email=user[1], group_ids=groups)
    models.db.session.add(user_new)
    models.db.session.commit()
    invite_user(org, user_from, user_new)
    print("An invitation was sent to [%s] at [%s]." % (user[0], user[1]))

What made you think Google SSO isn’t working? It’s supported using OAuth.

Same issue:

RuntimeError: Application was not able to create a URL adapter for request independent URL generation. You might be able to fix this by setting the SERVER_NAME config variable.

Any help?
