    Here are three potential ways you could bulk-change email addresses:

     

    1. If you use SSO and you manage user email addresses, you could write a script that hits a community page with an sso token for each of the users you would like to change the email for with the modified email address.
    2. If Lithium manages email addresses for each user, you could write a script that makes user/id/[id]/set REST API calls as an admin user to change the user email address.
    3. Lithium also has a user import feature that can be turned on which would allow you to upload a csv to change user email addresses, but it requires configuration which would need to be done via a professional services engagement.
