Hey @artax_sb,

Based on your question, I assume that your users are in the native realm? If so, then there isn't a way to bulk-assign a role to your users, but you can automate this by writing a script which calls the Elasticsearch's User APIs for each of your users

If you're using a different realm type (e.g. SAML, Kerberos, PKI, OIDC), then you can define a role mapping to assign your users the same role using a single declaration.
