Managing groups

With groups, you can limit access to content. Only administrators can create groups. Users can belong to more than one group.

To create a group:

1. Click your profile icon at the top right of the screen and then click Admin centre.
2. Click Groups in the left-hand navigation area and then click New group.
3. Enter a name and click Create group.
4. Select the desired members from the drop-down list.
5. Define the desired permissions for the group.

Only administrators can manage group memberships. There are different ways to add users to groups or remove them from groups:

1. When inviting a user
   Select the groups the new user should belong to directly in the invitation dialog. After registration, the user will have the permissions of those groups.
2. Via user management
   In the Admin Center, open the user whose group membership you want to edit. In the Groups section, you can add the user to groups or remove them from groups by selecting or deselecting the corresponding checkboxes.
3. Via the group view
   In the Admin Center, open the desired group. In the Members section, add new users to the group. To remove a member, click the trash icon next to the respective user.

You can delete groups that are no longer needed. Members of the group are not deleted; only the group itself and its permissions are removed. Only administrators can delete groups.

To delete a group:

1. Click your profile icon at the top right of the screen and then click Admin centre.
2. Click Groups in the left-hand navigation area and select the group you want to delete.
3. Scroll down and click Delete group.
4. Confirm by clicking Delete.
