Hi there,
We do regular imports of opt-in data from other sources, and we use contact permissions to manage opt-ins.
Does anyone have a report that can take a contact permission type, answer and list and update the contact permissions for those constituents?
Similar to how the canned Manage Contact Purposes utility works, but for contact permissions.
Thanks,

Ditto David's question. Following.
Also very interested in a utility for managing Contact Permissions!
Piling on to echo the support for a utility like this. I would like to say that because of how WordFly handles what they call "Preferences" we aren't able to get a Contact Permission explicit opt-in along with using Contact Point Purposes; the format of the Preferences page makes it awkward. The explicit opt-out is handled by the Unsubscribe but mostly what we get is people choosing Purpose preferences and nothing else - which results in the Permission set to "No" then.
Hi David,
I built a utility that does this but it's very specific to business process it was built for. I haven't looked at it in about two years, but it has a bulk update option that runs from a list and might be useful. Would you like the code?
Thanks,Andrew
Hi Andrew,
David is no longer with us at RISING (Formerly MIAF), but we are still grappling with this problem - if you do have that code I would love to take a look and see if we can implement it over here!

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has found a solution to this one. We're updating/expanding our permissions from just "Newsletter" and need to update some current permissions in bulk.
