    About this task

    You can add or remove user assignments of a neighborhood in a building or a scenario. A workplace user can only have one location in a neighborhood. If a user is assigned multiple locations in the same neighborhood, the latest added location is set as active and others are deleted.
    Note:
    On a building, you can only make user assignment-related changes only for a neighborhood that is already created. You can’t add a new neighborhood.
