If you have the kudos bulk handout permission you'll be able to bulk send kudos to a large group of people such as a team. This permission also enables you to give kudos on behalf of someone else.

There are two options available: Bulk Send and Bulk Upload.

  • Bulk Send is ideal for sending kudos to a small team, as it requires manually entering each username.

  • Bulk Upload is perfect for larger teams, allowing you to upload a CSV file with a list of usernames for a more efficient process.

If you are worried about cluttering the Hall of Fame when sending kudos in bulk, there is an option to create kudos that don’t appear in the Hall of Fame. This gives you full control over kudos visibility when sending them in bulk. Find out more.

  3. In the 'Send To' box you need to enter the list of usernames that you would like to send a kudos to. You can enter each username manually, pressing enter after each username, or you can copy and paste a list of usernames into the box. Each username has to be separated with a comma for example; Megan Bland, Ben Collier, Viktoria Webber, Ed Moore
