Overview

Sets a user’s rank to a specific rank number in the linked Roblox group. This allows jumping multiple ranks at once, unlike promote/demote which move one rank at a time. The user does not need to be a workspace member - they only need to be a member of the Roblox group. For workspace members:
  • Action is logged to ranking history, audit log, and disciplinary records
  • Workspace member data is updated
  • Both promotion and demotion suggestions are cleared
For non-workspace members (group members only):
  • Action is logged to ranking history and audit log only
  • No disciplinary record is created
  • All logs indicate the action was performed via API

Side Effects

When a user’s rank is set, the following actions occur automatically: For all users (workspace members and group-only members):
  1. Roblox Group Update - User’s rank in the Roblox group is updated
  2. Ranking History - Entry logged with timestamp, author, and comment
  3. Audit Log - Action logged with workspace member or group-only indicator
Additionally for workspace members only: 4. Workspace Data Update - User’s CurrentRank and CurrentRole are updated 5. Disciplinary Log - Record added to user’s disciplinary file 6. Suggestions Cleared - All pending ranking suggestions (both promotion and demotion) for the user are removed

​
Rank Limits

When setting a rank higher than the user’s current rank, the following limits apply:
  • Max Promotion Rank - Cannot set rank higher than this value
  • Max Auto-Ranking Rank - Cannot set rank higher than this value
These limits are configured in the workspace settings.

​
Use Cases

  • Reinstatement - Restore a user to their previous rank after a temporary demotion
  • Bulk Adjustments - Quickly adjust ranks during restructuring
  • Administrative Actions - Set exact ranks for special circumstances
  • Onboarding - Set new members to a specific starting rank
