Is there a way to get/give bulk permissions for 50-odd people in a tree?

Question

My 3C 1R has posted his family tree, which includes a large chunk of my relatives,  Since he got much of the shared family from me several years ago, he has willingly given me permissions--but there are so many individual permissions I need to ask for--that it's a real pain.  And that is one reason I haven't uploaded my own tree.  When you consider that there is another cousin on the other side of my family who ALSO has several hundred of my relatives--you can see that getting the permissions is a problem.  Is there some way that permissions could be given for all the ancestors, all the descendants, or all of the relations of a single person?  Or is there some way that if I uploaded my tree, all of the matches could be processed in batches--all of the matches to treeX, all of the matches to treeY, etc., etc.?

Thanks for your help with this.

Hi Coleen, and welcome!  There is a Bulk Trusted List tool that lets you add someone to multiple profiles.  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Trusted_List

Thanks Melanie!

I've never added in bulk, but I know what it's like to ASK for multiple accesses (one request got "lost" as it's still sitting in my list, but the profile is open so no biggie), so I went looking for a better way.

None of these will add me to more than a single profile at a time.  So I'm still wanting help on this!  (Links didn't match the request.)

Coleen,

There are not individual trees, but rather WikiTree is one shared collaborative tree. That said, you may need to collaborate with your cousins regarding more recent profiles. See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Collaboration and https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Privacy

This doesn't solve my problem.  How can my cousin put me on the trusted list for a hundred or more people in only a few steps?  We're looking at all of the descendants of McConnell-1923--plus another bunch of people that are related to me, but NOT also related to my cousin--but whom he uploaded.  Asking one at a time is a pain for both of us--there are too many!
