Is there a way to update/edit the groups that a list of members belong to in bulk?

I'm thinking like how, if you upload a CSV to Mailchimp, you can set it up update any already existing contact's information - and that let's you add new details or tags to their profile with a bulk upload.

I created a new group to allow access to a restricted forum, but it seems I would have to manually add each member to that group on the admin panel or else modify the database directly with SQL. Am I missing something easier?

Thanks!

What criteria are you using to dictate who to move? Is that criteria achievable via the member search in the ACP?

Hey @elint

Would like to know this as well 🙂

If they don't have to meet X Y Z criteria based on rules in the Group Promotions, you may have to manually move them. Also, how many members is it? 

Afraid not. The eligibility list comes from an external platform - it's members who opt-in to a new program, so it can't quite be determined programmatically based on data already in the forum.

Right now, we're looking at 100 members but future cohorts could get bigger.

It looks like the advanced search allows for a "move" to new groups, so that could be useful in the future!
