Plan: Enterprise | Version: 4.14+

This guide takes you through how to use user groups to manage permissions on your projects. User groups allow you to manage large groups of users more easily than assigning roles directly to those users. Refer to the section on user groups in the RBAC documentation for more information.

Creating user groups

1. Navigate to groups by using the admin menu (the gear icon) and selecting the groups option.

2. Navigate to new group.

3. Give the group a name, an optional description, an optional root role, and select the users you'd like to be in the group.

4. Review the details of the group and save them if you're happy.

Managing users within a group

1. Navigate to groups by using the admin menu (the gear icon) and selecting the groups option.

2. Select the card of the group you want to edit.

3. Remove users by using the remove user button (displayed as a bin).

4. Confirm the remove.

5. Add users by selecting the add button.

6. Find the user you'd like to add to the group and select them.

7. Review the group users and save when you're happy.

Assigning groups to projects

1. Navigate to projects

2. Select the project you want to manage.

3. Navigate to the access tab and then use the assign user/group button.

4. Find your group in the drop down.

5. Select the role that the group should have in this project. You can review the list of permissions that the group users will gain by having this role before confirming.
