What you can do

Steps to bulk remove organization members

Removing a member from an organization also removes their membership in all groups within that organization and their group administrator permissions. Re-inviting the member does not restore their previous group memberships or permissions. If you only want to remove administrative permissions, change them by following the steps in Remove permissions.

1. Open Affiliation.
2. Open the organization name.
3. Open Members.
4. Enter the email addresses of the members you want to remove.
5. Check the removal count shown on the screen (for example, a display such as 2 members will be removed with the current input.).
6. Click Bulk remove.
7. On the confirmation screen, check the number of members to be removed and click Yes.
8. After removal, enter the target email address in the search field and confirm that it no longer appears in the member list.

Steps to bulk remove group members

1. Open Affiliation.
2. Open the organization name.
3. Open Groups.
4. Open the target group.
5. Open Members.
6. Enter the email addresses of the members you want to remove.
7. Check the removal count shown on the screen (for example, a display such as 2 members will be removed with the current input.).
8. Click Bulk remove.
9. On the confirmation screen, check the number of members to be removed and click Yes.
10. After removal, confirm that the target email addresses no longer appear in the member list.

How to enter addresses

• You can enter multiple email addresses separated by line breaks or spaces.
• Only members who currently belong to the organization or group will be removed.

When members are not removed

• If an entered email address does not currently belong to that organization or group, it will not be removed.
• If the number of members to be removed is 0, bulk removal cannot be performed.

Additional notes

• The confirmation screen shows the number of members who will actually be removed.
• After removal is complete, the removal count on the screen returns to 0 members will be removed with the current input.
• Email addresses that do not exist or that do not currently belong to the organization or group are ignored, even if they are included in the input.
