Add users to group

I need to add 1000+ users to my PowerBi group.

Can this process be automated using C#.

@Anonymous I don't think there is any REST api available yet that you can leverage to add users to the group workspace via C# but I would suggest creating AD distribution list and adding that DL as a member of the group.

@Anonymous "Currently you can't add team or security group distribution lists to groups." - noted here

To share with that many users, you may want to re-analyze your approach. You can share dashboards with DL's, maybe that is a better option. To add those 1,000 users to a DL and share with that group.
