- May 09, 2019Hi glura,
Stream groups are built using Office 365 groups.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/groups-channels-overview#office-365-groups
Therefore you can bulk add users to the Office 365 group which will sync over to the stream group
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/stream/portal-manage-groups
A good way to do this is Powershell

Hope that answers your question!
Best, Chris

@Christopher Hoard - how can this be done and also have the "You have been added to a team in Microsoft Teams" message go out to each member?

Hi Frank_Adorney
I am unsure what you mean here. This string is about bulk adding users to Microsoft Stream Groups not to Microsoft Teams. You would usually do that in Powershell. Bulk adding users to a Team would add them to the Office 365 Group which would sync over to the Stream group. When adding users to a Team it ought to send out an email message. Are you not seeing this?
Best, Chris
