The Admin Console has various bulk operations. These operations make it easy to manage user data, product data, product profile data in large quantities.
For example, you can extract user data from another system that you are current using. Then, change the format as required by the bulk operations described here and then upload that data in bulk to the Admin Console. You can move users from one product profile to another by exporting the data from one product profile and then importing it back after editing.
For troubleshooting tips for bulk uploading to the Admin Console, see Troubleshoot bulk user upload.
Add multiple users
You can add multiple users to your organization and provision them to product profiles at the same time by uploading a comma-separated list. You can download a sample CSV file from the Import Users dialog and then fill the details and upload the file. You can import up to 5,000 users at a time.
On being assigned to a product profile or administrative rights, end users receive a welcome email.
For the detailed procedure, see Add users.
Edit multiple user details
As an administrator, you only have access to update details for users who belong to a domain that your organization owns. You cannot update details for users who belong to a domain that your organization trusts but does not own. You can modify the following details for a user:
- Name of the user
- User Groups and Products associated with the user
- Administrative rights
For detailed procedure for your identity provider, see Edit user details.
Switch user identity
Switch user identity types on the Adobe Admin Console. You need a new or an existing directory to change the identity type of a user from Enterprise ID to Federated ID or vice versa. For more details, see move domains across directories.

When you remove a user, all permissions and access to services conferred by the organization are revoked. For example, the licenses for products are revoked and users are unable to use the products.

License status report
If you have purchased Enterprise products in VIP, you can download a report license status report (.csv format). For each user, this report displays if products are delegated to that user and if the user is provisioned a license.
Product Delegated: A product is said to be delegated if a user has been assigned the product.
Product Provisioned: A product is said to be provisioned to a user if the user has the privilege to use the product. In other words, a license is available for the product.
If you are an ETLA customer, this report displays Yes for both the Product Delegated and Product Provision fields. This is irrespective of the licenses you have allocated to the users for a product.
See the Overview tab on the Admin Console to compare the statuses of licenses delegated and licenses provisioned for each product that your organization has purchased.
