If you need to add multiple users to a group at once, Engage allows you to do this in bulk using a few simple steps. 


Before you get started

Engage users can have multiple permission types. Both teachers and administrators can add and edit groups, but only users with ‘Admin’ (administrator) permissions can assign users to a group in bulk.


The specific groups need to be set up before you can assign users to it.


Bulk-assigning users to a group

To add a lot of users to a group in one go:

  1. After logging in to Engage, navigate to the settings section by selecting the cog wheel icon in the top right-hand corner of your screen.
    Black gear icon representing settings or configuration options.
  2. On the left-hand side of your screen, navigate to 'Users'.
    User and Groups menu with options: Users, Invite Users, Import Users, Email Domains, Bulk Archive Users, and Groups. Icons accompany each option.
  3. Select the relevant users by selecting the tick boxes next to each name.

    If you have grade or class set for specific users, you can also use Advanced Search (click ‘Advanced’ next to the search bar) to filter by grade or class, click here to better understand how to use the advanced search button. Once you've filtered a list, you can use the universal selector (the first tick box at the top of your user list) to select all users in your filtered search.

  4. Once you’ve selected the correct users, click the yellow ‘Assign Group’ button towards the top of the page.
    Yellow "Assign Group" button with a group icon, used to assign users to a group.
  5. Type in the name of your group and click ‘Save’.
    "Add Group" pop-up window with a text field showing example "Mr Bestbier | Grade 9 | Business Studies" and options to Save or Close at the bottom. A loading icon appears next to the group input.
