# Assign player update groups

Update groups provide an automated update mechanism for multiple players, their add-ons, and scripts.

Once you've assigned an update group to a player, the updates are deployed automatically.

> [!NOTE]

> Note that update groups are not for downgrading players to an earlier version.

To assign an update group, perform the following steps:

1. In IXM One, go to **Channels > Location**.
2. In the **Location** pane, select the location where the player is located.
3. In the **Managing players** pane, double-click on the player or select it and click **Edit**.
4. Switch to **Update groups**.
5. Select an update group.
6. Click **Save** to save your changes.
