Sharing Kobo tool to multiple accounts

Greetings Folks

How do i share my kobo tool to multiple accounts without the tedious process of adding one by one? Trying to add 200 accounts to 20 tools is time consuming

Hi @Pete and welcome to the community!

You can share to multiple accounts with comma , and no spaces between usernames. Like user1,user2,userN etc.

Then you can use “copy permissions from another project”

Unfortunately, once i click grant permisions, it says user not found.

@Pete can you make sure that every user is on the same server?

Yes. When i add the user individually, they are added. But a simple user1,user2 and it falls apart

Just to be sure, you changed the user1,user2 to their respective usernames, right?

Yes. Case in point: pmutimba, cmusoke

Hi @Pete,

Did you write the usernames without spaces between account names?

There is something not clear in the article

Please can you explain how multiple users can share the same settings

The relationship is 0…n permissions per 1 account. 1 account per 1…n users.

Thank you @wroos :rose:
We can give a user access to multiple users’ submissions [1…n]
But giving multiple users the same permissions at once is not possible [n…n]

Yes. (Only if you have put them together as a common account.)
