Batch Commands Syntax

A quick reference to the syntax for batch commands as well as field definitions for
user and organizations are listed on the batch page’s Summaries link. Access the
batch page through the Administration Console by going to Orgs & Users > Batch.
Here is the generic batch command syntax using tokens:

batch-command 1st-argument[, 1st-option][, 2nd-option]

or

batch-command 1st-argument,1st-field=1st-value[,2nd-field=2nd-

value

Objects inside “

[]

” (square brackets) are optional. Using the Administration

Console syntax, commas ('

,

') are used between batch command arguments,

within arguments use '

\,

'.
