Bulk manage users

Apply one security setting to many users in a single action.

Find it at Users → Bulk Manage Users

Select any number of users, choose one setting, choose the value, and apply it to all of them at once. This is how you turn a control on across a department without opening each person in turn.

Settings you can apply in bulk

Geo Restriction

Whether the domain geo-fence applies to them.

Sign-In Hours

Whether the domain schedule applies to them.

Impossible Travel

Whether travel detection applies to them.

IP Restriction

Their Access Type — Internal or External.

Browser Restriction

Whether they are limited to registered browsers.

Mobile Access

Whether they may sign in from a phone or tablet.

Authenticator

Whether a second factor is required.

Applying a setting

1 Tick the users you want to change, or the header checkbox to select everyone shown.
2 Choose the setting from the Setting list.
3 Choose the value in Set to.
4 Check the "n user(s) selected" count, then choose Apply to Selected.

One setting at a time

Each pass applies a single setting. To switch on both the authenticator and browser restriction for a team, run it twice — the selection is quick to repeat.

Bulk edit or a group?

Bulk editing applies a value once, to the people you picked today. A group applies rules continuously to whoever is in it, and lets that cohort have different settings — its own country list or schedule — rather than just the domain's. Use bulk editing for a one-off sweep; use a group when the team needs its own rules.

Check the count before applying

The action bar shows how many users are selected. Since several of these settings can refuse a sign-in, that number is worth reading before you confirm.

The action bar. Choose the setting, choose the value, check the count, then apply.
