User Groups
User groups let you manage permissions for multiple users at once. Instead of assigning roles and folder grants to each user individually, assign them to a group and add users to the group.
Creating a Group
Section titled “Creating a Group”- Go to Users & Access → Access Management.
- Click the Groups tab.
- Click Create Group.
- Give the group a name (e.g., “Downtown Stores,” “Marketing Team”).
- Optionally add a description.
- Click Save.
Adding Users to a Group
Section titled “Adding Users to a Group”- Open the group from the Groups tab.
- Click Add Members.
- Search for users by name or email.
- Select the users to add.
- Click Confirm.
Users can belong to multiple groups.
Group Permissions
Section titled “Group Permissions”Groups can have:
- Roles — all members inherit the group’s roles.
- Folder grants — all members get the group’s folder access.
When a user is in multiple groups, their effective permissions are the union of all group roles and folder grants, plus any individual assignments.
Use Cases
Section titled “Use Cases”| Scenario | How Groups Help |
|---|---|
| Multi-location retail | Create a group per store. Assign store-specific folder grants. Add staff to their store’s group. |
| Departmental access | Create groups for Marketing, Operations, and IT. Each group gets different roles and folder access. |
| Temporary teams | Create a group for a campaign or event. Add team members, assign permissions, and delete the group when done. |
Group vs. Individual Assignments
Section titled “Group vs. Individual Assignments”| Approach | Best For |
|---|---|
| Group | Managing permissions for teams, locations, or departments. |
| Individual | One-off permissions for specific users that don’t fit a group pattern. |
Removing Users from a Group
Section titled “Removing Users from a Group”- Open the group.
- Find the user in the members list.
- Click Remove.
Removing a user from a group revokes the group’s roles and folder grants for that user (unless they have them through other groups or individual assignments).
Deleting a Group
Section titled “Deleting a Group”You can delete a group at any time. This does not delete the users — it only removes the group association. Users lose the roles and folder grants provided by that group.
