Adding multiple users to specific sites

You can add multiple users at once to sites using Access Groups or directly from the Sites page.

  • Adding users via Access Groups

To assign access groups to specific sites, create access groups for a site, add or remove users to the group using the arrows, and grant the group access to that site’s entries.
