Move users with a CSV file

Enterprise Administrators can use the import and export process to move large groups of users between their enterprise and suborganizations. Enterprise Administrators who are logged in to a super enterprise organization can use the import and export process to move users between the suborganizations of any enterprise organization within the super enterprise.
Operators who are End Users Managers, Organization Administrators, Alert Managers, or Advanced Alert Managers in a suborganization can move users from their suborganization to other suborganizations.
User uniqueness must be enabled before you can move users between organizations. For more information, see Enable enterprise features.
