# How to Set the “Address me as” Value Using GAT Flow

GAT Flow allows [Google Workspace](https://workspace.google.com/) admins to set users' **Address me as** settings automatically. The**Address me As** value may be used for personalisation across Google services, including how they refer to the given user.

## Create workflow

When Flow is launched, click on**Create workflow**(1).

Under the **Define Workflow Type**section (2) key in the **Workflow name** (3), select the **Modify** option (4), toggle **Run immediately after approval** option (5) for immediate start of the workflow after approval, and move forward by clicking **Next**(6).

You can add individual Users, Groups, Org. units, or import users in bulk.
