Please confirm:

  • I have searched existing feature requests (open and closed) and found no duplicates.
  • **me or my organization is currently an active sponsor of the product at the $99,- level.

Problem Statement

When I need to bulk add users, I still have to go into user/group management and bulk assign users to a group.
I would like to be able to include the group/groups needed either in the CSV, or in the Extra Options step.
In my dream world, I would be able to copy groups from an existing user.

Benefits for MSPs

This would improve efficiency of bulk user creation.
It would greatly automate the case of needing to onboard 25+ users for a customer.
It would also eliminate some risk of human error in making sure the users are created properly, and as a separate step, assigned groups properly.

Value or Importance

I think this feature aligns strongly with cipp's goals of automation and efficiency.
Having exactly one wizard to walk through for user creation would be extremely elegant.
Customers hitting an MSP with a large number of users to onboard is always painful, this would ease some of those pains.

NOTE: This was mentioned as part of the original feature request for bulk user creation https://github.com/KelvinTegelaar/CIPP/issues/2171
I did not see an existing issue to fully implement the original request, so I made this one.

PowerShell Commands (Optional)

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in improving CIPP!
To keep our development process focused and manageable, feature requests are limited to paying users. This policy helps us prioritize improvements that directly benefit those actively supporting CIPP and ensures we can sustain our development and support.

When a sponsor makes a feature request, their support covers training, development, documentation, and security checks. Allowing non-sponsor requests could lead to a backlog that slows down updates and stretches resources thin, ultimately affecting the quality and sustainability of CIPP.

While we’ve closed this request, we appreciate your input. You’re always welcome to participate in ongoing discussions or contribute to open issues. If you are a developer, feel free to open a PR that includes your feature request or comment "I’d like to work on this!" to assign the issue to yourself.

Did you get this notification in error? Reply with a screenshot of your sponsorship payment and we’ll reopen the issue.

Thank you for understanding,
The CIPP Team
